We do trash clean up at an hourly rate so that we charge accurately for the job we are providing.
We handle jobs of all sizes. We have done work as simple as moving and hauling off a gas grill up to and including cleaning out a hoarder.
We also do 'blight notice' work. If you are getting harassed by the city to remove junk in your yard, give us a call. We are far more reasonable than the city contractor's rate of up to $60/hr
Customer pays ALL dump fees/ tipping fees.
Billable hours are for • Loading & unloading • Windshield time to get to and from the dump.
• Bagged trash - household
• non-bagged trash - household
• scrap metal • appliances • scrap auto
• yard waste / trees/ branches/ leaves
• total house clean-out
• rental cleanout - renter leave you with trash to clean out - call us.
• estate cleanout - estate needs to be completely cleaned out? call us.
$100/ per load + disposal
stipulations: it is prepared in trash bags, ready for loading onto the trailer.
3.33 hr min @ $30/hr = $100 per load + disposal Fees.
that is I charge a minimum of $100 per load if it takes me under 3hr 20 min to load, drive and unload it.
if it requires ADDITIONAL trailer loads, the formula starts over on each load.
so if your second load is not pre- bagged ready to go [for example] the fees on loose trash I have to load/ bag if $30/hr
all hours, [with a minimum of 3.33 hr] if it takes over 3 hour 20 minutes for that load it goes to the hourly rate.
in these examples
load 1 $100 flat [load under 3.33hr] + disposal
load 2: say it took 4 hours... 4hr x $30/hr = $120 + disposal
loads are PER trailer load, each load has its own pricing. this is not a flat rate on overall time on the project.
See county form HERE for Disposal Fees.
Salvage Rights: We reserve the right to seperate items & dispose of it in the best interest of the company.
Example: total home cleanout: we seperate the scrap metals for recycle, and take them to the recycle center; as opposed to dumping those materials in the 'transfer station'; which they want seperated out anyhow.
* Anything left on or in the designated area of operation [house/ garage etc] is therefore determined in advance to be "trash". Therefore anything found 'of value' to us will be kept, and will not be compensated for on your bill. After-all it was "Trash" to be thrown away.
Examples: Tools, cash, military items, ammunition, guns, knives, outdoor goods, mowers, motors, anything deemed trash by the owner.
Client agrees that provider has salvage rights. That said any time "hunting" for stuff we are keeping is not billed time. You are paying us to toss trash not "shop". But if we are tossing stuff in the dumpster and 'find' something neat to keep, that's ours to keep and the time is billable, provided that the time taken to set something aside isn't unreasonably longer in time than just tossing it would have been.
Additionally Time loading "kept" items are not billed. If we want the stuff it's on us to load it on our time. And since we arent Disposing of it in the traditional way, via the landfill, there wont be a dump ticket generated and thus wont be subject to a dump fee.
Scrap metal is the odd event there is no dump Fee, as it is recycled for FREE, and so the only real fees there, would be the time to load/ unload/ deliver it to the sight where its to be disposed of. SCRAP METAL will have NO dump ticket as proof of disposal!
Customers should ensure that when we arrive to work that all items they wish to keep in the work area have been removed prior to us getting there. We generally do not look in boxes or totes. We will not look for items for the customer. We are there to toss trash. We are there to do the job with some level of speed and efficiency. Please be sure all items you wish to find or keep are found and kept prior to us arriving.
Do not ask us: "we havn't found grandmas china set, of you find it set it aside for us" Nope; we cant. We will not be responsible for things we have thrown away. Again; you need to be sure anything you want is found and removed BEFORE we arrive to remove items. If you have items in a room that have been found and tell us not to mess with them; thats one thing; if you want us to search for an item you've not found; that's a totally other thing, and although we may try to look while we throw, we will NOT gaurantee that we will find it, or gaurantee that in throwing items we have not accidentally thrown something away. for those who didn't read it above; we are paid to throw away trash; not look through every box to "shop".
90%+ of customers understand this; and frankly its not been an issue; but for those who needed to read that; there it is.
If you have any questions feel free to ask when we get there to look at the job.
Thank You,
