Raedena Vogler

Raedena Vogler (5/5 stars, 7 months ago): Half the annual price for our household over hiring a contractor! I appreciate Jared! He is the only employee I've seen there who actually is willing to help the customer and keep the dump as tidy as possible. It was clear the two other guys before hated their job. We were actually turned away by the scrawny one because the trash bin was being switched out and he refused to weigh us on the small scale even though it was just kitchen trash.

Rhonda Roberts (5/5 stars, 12 months ago): Newest employee is the best one yet. Been going there 4 years now and they finally found a guy who makes you feel good about choosing them!
