I was just wondering if anyone is familiar with a company called Anchor Trash. They came through our neighborhood and convinced lots of the residents to hand over credit card info and blank checks but when I Googled them, nothing came up. Does anyone know if this is a real, legit company?
They came through our neighborhood as well last week. We respectfully declined the deep discount he offered over what we pay with Brocks. Out of curiosity after he left my house, I Googled the company as well and could not even locate a telephone number. I hope they are legit because he had a pretty good sized list from our neighborhood also!
Our neighborhood also had a visit from Anchor Trash, My husband is a retired sanitation worker and a lot of what the man said just did not make sense. We were smart enough not to give him a check or credit card info, and I am hoping that none of my neighbors did so.
I wouldn't think a reputable company would collect payments door to door, rather leave information on signing up with a bill to be sent later. I am surprised in this day and time that people would be so willing to hand over their personal financial information to someone they didn't solicit. I would have asked if they would mind me taking a picture of them, their car, license plate, and driver license before handing over information. I'll bet that would get them scootin' out of the neighborhood. Good luck to your neighbors. I hope it was not a scam.
I forgot to mention above that I asked him if he had a business card and he stated that "he did not" (red flag). He was walking door to door and was dropped off or parked somewhere and walked the neighborhood.
This is what came up when I typed in anchordisposal.com. Not much to see. http://raleightrashcollection.com/ Seriously would NOT give financial information or cash to ANYONE coming to my door. This is not the way I do business, but to each his own, I suppose.
Thanks, I'd still be afraid to trust them. Self made web site a second grader could do with very little info about the company.

It's not hard to use Google Took me about 5 minutes to find all that info. Makes me wonder why people spend thousands on PIs when they could do most of the same stuff online in no time at all.
The dude was in our neighborhood yesterday. We have a 'no soliciting' sign on our door and he knocked anyway. He was wearing a bright neon reflection vest. My husband asked for a business card or a flyer that he could look at and get back to him, but he said he didn't have that. We are calling the Hardees over at the Red Barn. I would think they would want to know about this...even if it's legit, they aren't going about the marketing very well.
