FAQ General

Do you charge for recycling?

We recycle many items for FREE but unfortunately we have to charge for hard to recycle items to defer some of the cost.

Does my item have to be in a working condition?

Unlike other companies, we will DO accept appliances and anything metal that are broken or in bad shape. We are not picky because we have the means to recycle all of the individual components. Recycling is our job, not merely the reselling of appliances in working condition. This is why we ask a minimal fee to pick up your appliance: We take on the bigger task of taking appliances apart and recycling all of the material appropriately.

FAQ Pickup

Can I choose a day and time?

Yes you can choose a specific recycling pickup day and time during the scheduling process. You will have an option to select the date and time in STEP 4.

Do you offer a pick-up service?

We offer an easy Curbside Pickup (it does not have to be on the curb).

This means that you pay online and leave your item anywhere outside for us to pick it up. Most home owners prefer this arrangement as it is convenient and not intrusive at all. You don’t have to be home, and we don’t have to invade your privacy.

Note: If you live in an apartment or think your HOA will complain about the item on the curb/outside, simply leave a note “SCHEDULED FOR PICK-UP” on your item. This will assure them that you are not abandoning an item and that it will be removed promptly.

We can pick your items up for a fee which will vary according to the distance that our truck needs to travel to pick up your items. We have computerized the process for your convenience. You can find out what a pick-up will cost simply by typing in your zip code.

If you don’t want to leave it on the curb or in the driveway then we understand, we can also pickup from inside your house. Click here to schedule a pick up or get a price quote now.

Do you pick-up on weekends?

We don’t usually  do pick-ups on weekends, but it can be arranged under special requests. Please contact us to make arrangements.

What if I can’t move my items out to the curb?

Don’t want to leave it on the curb? No problem, we will collect it from your house or garage at no extra charge, no need to haul heavy equipment around, let us do the hard work.

What if I live in an apartment ?

If you live in an apartment building you can leave the small items outside the apartment door, this way we will not invade you privacy when we pickup.

Larger items can be moved to your carport or even into the a uncovered parking area with a note saying “Scheduled for Recycling pickup”.

What if my items aren’t picked up on the preferred day?

Customer service is our highest priority, so we will go out of our way to  pick-up your items on the day you’ve requested.

However, unforeseen circumstances such as weather conditions, traffic, or work load might prevent us from picking up your items on the day you’ve requested. If this unlikely scenario arise, we will be there the following business day to pick up your items.

We will be in touch by email or phone if we are for some reason not able to pick up your items on the day you’ve scheduled.

When will you pick up my mattress or appliance?

We will pickup your items on the day that you selected during the scheduling process, with exceptions**.

Keep in mind that we now service the whole Portland Metropolitan and Vancouver area. This means that we might have to group pickups that are more than 30 miles away together to keep prices as low as possible for our customers.

It is very hard to judge how long each individual pickup will take as the quantity in each recycling pickup varies a great deal. We also never know when a tuck will have to go back to headquarters to unload if full during recycling pickups.

For this reason it is not always possible for us to guarantee that we will be able to pick up your items on the day you requested (99% of all pickups are picked up on the requested day).

We will send you an email if we cannot pickup on the day that you scheduled your pickup. Your patience in this respect will be greatly appreciated.

  1. **If you schedule your pickup late in the day it might not be picked up the same day
  2. **Due to traffic and weather conditions out of our control we might not pickup on the scheduled day

FAQ Refrigerated Appliances

What are the US government regulations on refrigerated appliances?

The Metallic Discards Act of 1991 banned major appliances such as refrigerators, water heaters, washers, dryers, and air conditioners from landfill disposal and required them to be recycled for their metal content. This Act was recently amended to improve compliance with regulations for proper removal of hazardous materials from the appliances prior to recycling the metal.
