"We had junk to remove from our basement and around our exterior buildings. The quote was for an hour of labor (2 employees) and a 20 foot dumpster. They hauled away metal, oil, electronics, tires and wood-based items. They arrived right on time and were very pleasant to deal with. They stuck around to give us a quote on fence installation as well."

We are a locally owned, family operated business. We offer a variety of payment options including on line billing and account management.

"After 25 years, We got tired of Casella's rising prices and erratic pickups and messages about changes in a pickup day. That along with the local office no longer allowing you to stop there to discuss and issue (their office doors are now locked) and the fact Casella is now run all of state of Vermont. We contacted Duffys, who is owned and operated in Vermont (!)...got a better rate and moved from every-other-week service we had at Casella's to weekly pickup. We had 92+ gallon containers and now have 62+ gallon containers so effectively we have ⅔ of the container space to use weekly over our previous Casella service. win-win! The staff and email/rep support at Duffys is excellent. They set up our account with paperless billing, dropped off our new containers a week prior to our first pickup with Duffys so we have plenty of time to use/fill them and their pickup times seem very similar every week. The other best part of this is that Duffys uses a truck that picks up both trash ad recycle at the same time. Both empty containers can be rolled up the driveway together now! No more having to wait for Casella's separate trash and recycle trucks to both come by. In fact during a very recent normal/non-holiday pickup week, we noticed Casella's was a day late picking up our streets recycle. So all of those customers had to wait another day to retrieve their recycle container so they could begin to use it again. We are delighted with Duffys. My neighbor asked me why I switched and once I explained basically what I say here, she made the switch to Duffys the following week! I think there will be others here on my street making the switch to Duffys in time. Casellas is a huge national company spread across the US, while Duffys is a much smaller company locally based who I feel can offer better service, have a rep who is local and who can address issues or a question and you can count on them! If you are considering switching your trash/recycle service or new in the area, please do consider contacting Duffy's before you make your decision."

Garbage Collection questions, answered by experts

Garbage disposals last an average of about 10 years, so it may be time for a new model if it's getting up there in age. Other signs that it's time to bring in a local garbage disposal pro include:

  • Leaks under your disposal

  • Persistent clogs

  • Lingering odors

  • Lack of power

  • Unexplained noises

Soil is just one of the items you shouldn't put down a garbage disposal. Garbage disposals are only meant for soft, non-fibrous foods. Large amounts of topsoil, dirt, or rocks will damage the blades of your garbage disposal or clog the pipes. If a small amount of dirt goes down the drain as you repot a plant, you shouldn't have to worry, but never dump a whole pot of soil in the sink for fast disposal.

Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.

Garbage disposals are durable appliances that usually last at least eight years as long as you clean and maintain them. It’s relatively rare for a garbage disposal to break on its own, as most malfunctions happen due to user errors, like overstuffing the grinding compartment or damaging the blades by trying to dispose of metal or bone. Eventually, cracks or leaks could develop in the unit, which requires a full replacement. 

Continuous feed garbage disposals are the favorite model for many homeowners for a reason. As opposed to batch feed models, add food scraps to the drain whenever the disposal is running. This variety is also typically less expensive, more convenient, and easier to clean.
