Residential Waste Pickup
We provide six-day-a-week curbside and backdoor trash pickup for South Orange, NJ residents. Our service includes standard container provision and timely collection with options for bulky item removal. Customers receive personalized attention for scheduling adjustments and billing inquiries.
Roll-Off Containers
Our roll-off division offers 10, 20, and 30-yard containers for residential and industrial projects. Ideal for cleanouts, renovations, and construction work, these containers feature walk-in doors and require 24-hour delivery notice with weekend availability for most sizes.
Commercial Trash Services
We serve commercial clients with front load, rear load, and compactor systems across six New Jersey counties. Our solutions accommodate businesses from small shops to large facilities, with customizable collection schedules and environmentally compliant waste disposal methods.
Grass Clippings Pickup
Seasonal grass pickup service runs May through October with curbside collection on Wednesdays. Residents receive 3-4 32-gallon cans for loose clippings, with specific placement requirements to ensure efficient collection during the six-month service period.
Compactor Systems
Our compactor division provides breakaway receiver containers that attach to stationary compactors. Designed for high-volume waste generators like hospitals and shopping centers, these systems reduce waste volume to lower disposal costs through hydraulic compaction technology.
Questions
What waste types are prohibited in roll-off containers?
We prohibit hazardous materials, freon-containing appliances, tires, and propane tanks. Paint cans must be dried with absorbent material before disposal.
Can containers be placed on dirt driveways?
We strongly advise against placing containers on dirt due to potential sinking from weather conditions and will not assume responsibility for resulting property damage.
How does billing work for residential accounts?
All accounts must be in the homeowner's name with 45-day payment terms. Service suspension occurs for overdue balances requiring payment before reactivation.
What areas do you service?
We service Morris, Union, Essex, Somerset, Passaic, and Warren Counties with both residential and commercial waste management solutions.
Are there extended rental options for dumpsters?
Standard rental periods last 7-10 days with extension options available upon request for ongoing projects requiring longer container access.
How do compactor systems reduce waste costs?
Our compactor systems use hydraulic technology to compress waste materials, significantly reducing volume to lower disposal costs for high-volume commercial operations.
