Common questions

Weekly Trash Pickup FAQ.

How do I start service?
Call dispatch to see if we service your city.
What if my pickup day falls on a holiday?
Most major holidays shift your pickup one day later that week. We notify all customers by text and email the week before any schedule change. No pickup is ever skipped - just shifted.
Can I get an extra cart?
Yes. Extra 96-gallon carts are available for an additional monthly fee. We can also swap you to a larger cart size if your household generates more than a standard bin each week. Call dispatch to adjust.
What day will my pickup be?
Pickup day is determined by your street's route. We'll confirm your specific day when you sign up. Most areas have Monday–Friday route coverage.
Do you pick up in my city?
We serve 115+ cities across LA County. Enter your ZIP on the home page to check - or just call us.
