Estimate only. Your final quote is confirmed after we review your property. Month-to-month service with no long-term contract. Not included: overflow bags ($1 per extra bag), bin replacement ($10 per bin) and holiday pickups (per-unit charge shown on your quote).

We bill on total units, occupied or not. Service is month-to-month with no long-term contract. Our minimum property size is 25 units.
Adding units never lowers your bill. If your property is just below a size tier, you pay the lower of your tier price or the starting price of the next tier. For example, 95 units pay $720 a month, the same as 100 units.
