Bought this service through an Angie's List deal. Gave them possible dates/times online and the constraints of our lawn setup (we're on a hillside), they replied quickly with a proposal, and I confirmed the date/time online. So much faster and convenient than many others where you're giving all your particulars over the phone to someone who is just putting the info into a computer. Their two guys showed up ahead of schedule and went straight to work. Neither seemed to speak great English, but no problem to confirm what needed to be done and where they needed to avoid in-ground sprinklers. Our house is on the side of a hill, so the lawn is spread over three levels, and the guys hauled the aeration machine up and down stairs without complaint or issue to do the work. After the aeration, they spread fertilizer (they provided) and spread grass seed (I provided) and took care to hit all corners of the lawn with each. After that, they took out a blower to clean up the hard surfaces from debris. All told, it took less than an hour. Only thing I would have liked from these guys is some review or assessment of the plugs they pulled out of the ground to see what I could do to improve our soil quality and grass in the future.

Our old shed collapsed due to the heavy snows this year. Once we got an insurance payment, I looked to Angie's List for a contractor to take down the shed and possibly do a few other things. Having used a big-name hauling service once in the past and not been that impressed with their price, I looked on Angie's List for an independent contractor, and New Life jumped out at me with all their good reviews. Based on a description of the shed on the phone, Gabriel gave me an estimated range for teardown and hauling off, and the final charge was midway in that range. We scheduled them to come on a Monday, but had to reschedule to a Tuesday afternoon due to heavy rain. Because Gabriel is a carpenter, he was able to teardown the shed safely and without damaging our neighbor's fence running close behind the shed. Because of the great job done on the shed, I had him tackle the demolition in the basement, despite the fact that it was late in the day. While there, Gabriel also gave me estimates for tree trimming and hauling the old bricks behind the shed, and came out a week later to perform those tasks. In both cases, the work was performed by Gabriel and a single crew member; they worked hard and completed the work quickly, a total of about 6 hours at our house. Gabriel is detail-oriented, runs a tight ship, and had his crew do a great job cleaning up all the worksites, as well as protecting our lawn while hauling off the materials (which they did by foot). As an arborist and landscaper, Gabriel also gave us some free advice on tree and lawn issues. Overall, it was a pleasure to work with Gabriel and we'll definitely be using New Life again the future."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/dc/washington/new-life-contracting-services%E2%80%8E-reviews-412218.htm"},"position":10}]}

We hired a 3 man crew led by Cliff for a day to top trees blocking mountain views and also to take down trees leaning toward home and incoming power lines to house. They did a great job, neatly stacked the useable firewood and hauled away unusable deadwood and brush. Very professional.
They did the job exactly as I asked. They were clean and quick. I've used them before and would use them again. Their prices are much more reasonable than the big name junk haulers. I added a couple items to the load and they took it away without increasing the price.

Calling a hauler can be a nail biting experience. Will you get just some angry guy in a truck? The folks at Eco will alleviate any such worries. They were polite, professional, and efficient. And the price was right. So long as they're in business, I have my hauler!

"I highly recommend DES! I arranged a consultation after a home inspection report indicated that there was moisture in our basement walls. I was worried that costly mitigation efforts would be required. A friend who had previously used DES for a basement water problem highly recommend them, telling us that they were an honest company that only does what is necessary to solve a problem.

It is so refreshing to have a company that doesn't try to sell expensive services when they are not necessary!"

FAQs for dirt hauling projects in Somerset, MD
The kinds of items or materials accepted will vary by hauling company. Some companies will not handle hazardous waste, but hiring ones that do will cost from $5 to $100 or more, depending on what type and quantity of material.
Most companies will haul items such as:
Construction and remodeling waste: $100–$600
Appliances: $50–$600
Furniture: $50–$400
Electronics: $60–$200
Yard waste: $70–$500
Unfortunately, some plumbing scenarios, like a broken sewer pipe repair, will require excavation to complete the job. Plumbing excavation costs range from $30 to $70per cubic foot. However, if you need additional trenching, expect to pay an extra $4 to $12per linear foot. Keep in mind that these costs are on top of the plumbing repair costs, and they don’t account for labor costs. Consult your excavation specialist to determine an accurate estimate for your job.
The cost to hire a professional junk hauling service ranges from $60 to $600, averaging about $270. Your final price is determined by the type of junk, amount of junk, the distance to the dumpsite, and the equipment required to move and haul your items or materials. Keep in mind that construction junk removal is more expensive than hauling household items, so expect to pay $800 for removing large piles of debris.
The average cost for pool excavation is $2,500. This cost can range from $450 to $4,500, depending on the pool shape and size, time of year, and any need to move buried utilities.
When excavating for your pool, you might have to move existing utilities. You can expect to pay an additional $15 to $25per linear foot to move gas lines. To move a septic system, it’ll cost an additional $2,000 to $20,000. A pool that is 10 feet by 12 feet averages $450 to excavate, and a 20-foot-by-40-foot pool averages $3,020.
The cost for residential excavation is $3,200 on average, ranging between $50 and $200per cubic yard. Total costs could range from $500 to $15,000, depending on the project type, yard size, and soil type.
When a project needs an excavator, the contractor will subcontract one as part of the larger project. If you hire an excavation specialist, you can expect to pay between $40 and $180per hour. When excavating, if you have soil with excessive rocks or clay deposits, expect an additional cost of $200 to $1,200.
