"Yesterday I used the services of Rocky Mountain Refuse LLC to remove a large pile of debris from cleaning out a rental home. Hector was extremely prompt in responding to my requests and came out the next day. I found him to be very professional, timely and fair in his pricing. He and his helper got the job done quickly and left no sign of the original pile. I heartily recommend this company for any debris removal that you may have."

Customers say: True professional

"Eric and his team did an amazing job from start to finish. After a couple of meetings to understand our goals for our primarily dirt yard, SummerSweet designed and executed the project with a personal touch. If you appreciate doing business with a handshake and having access to a project manager, then I would recommend SummerSweet. All work was done to our expectations, and careful attention was paid to drainage and safety concerns with our yard."

Customers say: Quality work

"I bought a house that had been sitting for years. It had dozens of large over grown trees, hedges, bushes, roses etc. I had them remove some bushes and trim everything on the property down. They were easy to work with, reasonably priced, and did a thorough clean up. Everything looks great and I will likely use them for future projects."

Dirt Hauling FAQs, answered by experts

Because Placitas lacks municipal pickup, completion times for garbage collection service depend entirely on your private hauler contract. Most local professionals offer weekly or bi-weekly schedules. Setting up a new service contract takes one to three weeks, as haulers must assess road accessibility. Disposing of bulk items requires scheduling a separate haul, adding another one to two weeks.

Helpful?

High desert winds in Placitas easily scatter unsecured waste and blow over bins. During the summer monsoon season, heavy rainfall creates muddy, impassable dirt roads, forcing private haulers to delay garbage collection service. Winter snow and ice also disrupt pickup schedules. Extreme heat accelerates odors, attracting wildlife, while dry conditions increase wildfire risks from improperly stored yard debris.

Helpful?

Setting up garbage collection service in Placitas often involves hidden fees for difficult road access, especially if you live on a steep or unpaved route. Private haulers frequently add remote route fuel surcharges to your bill. You will also encounter separate fees for disposing of bulk items or electronics, purchasing mandatory bear-resistant containers, and paying minimum monthly charges regardless of pickup frequency.

Helpful?

Residents must arrange private garbage collection service since this unincorporated community lacks municipal pickup. You must manage waste storage areas to maintain defensible space against wildfires. Check your HOA covenants for specific bin visibility rules. Furthermore, curbside recycling remains unavailable through private haulers in rural NM, requiring you to transport recyclables directly to designated drop-off facilities.

Helpful?

Secure your bins with bear-resistant containers to make garbage collection service safer for children and pets around active NM wildlife. Place bins carefully, as narrow, unpaved roads lack sidewalks and create hazards when heavy trucks navigate tight spaces. Keep hazardous materials out of regular bins, and position containers to prevent high winds from blowing debris into family play areas.
