"My deck had water damage on the face and at the bottom of a post that had rotted out on the lower level of our two story deck. The most substantial part of the repair itself to that particular area turned out ok. But that’s where my praise stops. He had a nice portfolio of pictures on Facebook. I didn’t call references. My error. I had to replace my deck rails after this business used a sawzall to cut them off to do repairs. The rails were screwed in and in good enough shape to unscrew and re-use. But no, he cut through them and ruined them. He attempted to screw them back in place and close the gaps, and in doing so broke off several screws. This was particularly irritating when I began my repairs to his shoddy work yesterday. I decided to install cable rails this week and had to make a number of modifications to prep. While doing the prep work, I discovered a rotted post. I took apart the face of the deck, which overlapped where he had made repairs. It seems he noticed more rot, and then decided to put it back together anyhow. There’s no way this could not have been noticed. He “sistered” one of the rotted floor joists with a piece of board about a foot long - instead of the typical 1/3 of the length of the original board required for proper sistering. My experience earlier this year: He did not have a contract, but I took him as a man of his word and trusted he would do right by me. He showed up without a ladder and needed to use a box of screws I had because he didn’t bring enough. He crushed in part of the metal deck ceiling, dislodged a retaining wall stone while using it as a saw horse, and dented in a copper post cap. He reassembled the facade beneath the deck in a manner that gave it the appearance of a dilapidated monster house. He then told me construction people do not reuse anything, and I should have anticipated having to replace it all, including the railing - which was screwed on cockeyed. Then, he left all the rotten wood, concrete and other trash laying in my yard and told me that was the homeowner’s responsibility to take care of. I’ve never experienced anything like this. My bad for not forcing a clear contract. I pause a little over $2000. For his work and I had to pay for all the wood at the home improvement/lumber stores. After some heated conversations, he ended up taking the trash. I delayed in writing a review because I felt like I failed to make him produce a contract and didn’t watch over him like a mother hen. I am very capable of doing most of my own work but was not comfortable with replacing a structural two story post. After discovering his shoddy, irresponsible work this week, I decided it was time to write a review. I cannot recommend this company for anything. Honestly, I wish this mother, grandmother, and great grandmother had just completed the job herself. I wasted my money, and this repair was not cheap. At least I know now the remains repairs are being done correctly. Wish I could post pictures here."

Garbage collection services FAQs

Contact your local municipality to request garbage collection services. In most areas, your local city or municipality manages garbage collection, which contracts a waste collection company to do trash collection and other garbage collection and disposal services. However, if you can’t wait for the next trash collection day, you can also contact a local junk removal service to come and haul away your garbage. Confirm with any junk removal companies what items they will take. If you’re renovating your home or have a lot of garbage to get rid of, consider renting a dumpster.

The cost of junk removal services for private garbage collection factors in wages for labor, the cost of maintaining and operating vehicles and trailers to haul garbage to a dump or recycling center. Landfills also charge a fee to dump garbage, which varies depending on what kind of waste it is. 

A garbage collection pro or junk removal company can typically take anything from a single item such as refrigerator to the entire contents of a house or out-building being emptied. One exception is disposing of hazardous waste (like bleach or used oil), which is typically handled by your municipality. Check reviews, references, and qualifications of any company you hire to collect garbage. Ask what the company’s limitations are, what tools and equipment they use, and their availability. 

Disposing of old paint, bleach, oil, and fertilizer should be handled by a company that specializes in this kind of waste. Many private junk removal companies do not dispose of these items. Because these materials are hazardous to the environment and dangerous to handle or dispose of improperly, you should confirm with your local municipality about places to take hazardous materials for safe disposal.
