These guys are by far the top top notch In my business we unpack import shipments so we collect truck loads of empty boxes and debris. I have been coming here for 13 years never an issue.

This place is terrible they charge $127 for less than 1000 pounds ? Also the lady on the window is so rude if she is not happy there. Why she is working there? Just go back home and watch tik tok because you looks like that is what you want🤣🤣🤣.. people please do not dump here this is the worst place 👎👎👎👎

Visitor questions

How do I schedule a free bulky item pickup?

Call Athens Services at (888) 336-6100 or visit athensservices.com at least 24 hours before your regular trash pickup day. Place items at the curb no earlier than the day before your scheduled pickup. Note that lumber, concrete, auto parts, paint, and used motor oil cannot be included.

How do I dispose of old electronics like TVs and computers?

E-waste cannot be thrown in the trash under California law. Paramount residents can schedule a free curbside e-waste pickup by calling Athens Services at (562) 259-1239 at least one day before your normal trash day, then place the items at the curb on trash day. Free drop-offs at the Athens Services facility are also available.

Is bulky item pickup free for all residents?

Yes, bulky item pickup is free for all residential locations. Commercial and multi-family customers should contact Athens Services directly about their options. Disposing of bulky items without proper notice can result in a $325 fee per instance under Paramount Municipal Code Sec. 13.20.190.

Are trash collection services affected on holidays?

Some holidays result in a one-day delay in trash collection (Christmas, New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving). Other holidays such as Martin Luther King Jr. Day, President's Day, and Juneteenth follow regular scheduled service. A full schedule is published on the city's website.
