I also use Advantage Waste. They're great. Here's why: Customer service people are friendly. It's only $25/month (paid quarterly) INCLUDING recycling. They take pretty much anything you can recycle (including the soup cans which are not aluminum and the dump does not take them) The recycle container is same size as the trash one They take the trash out for me. It's cheap. You get the idea.
This is exactly why we dropped Republic, IIRC recycling was part of the service, then they decided they wanted to charge extra. It was no extra charge for them to come and pick up their bin and herbie-curbie. :lol:
