stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Excessive rate raise for a yard waste standard 95 gallon can with fees went up to $264.95. A substantial increase from 2023. They lure you in with discounts only to raise the rates to crazy.

Curbside Waste - Property Damage

So my neighborhood has all of the mailboxes on one side of the street. My mailbox is in front of my neighbor's property, who uses Curbside Waste.

On Dec 12, 2023, my mailbox was completely ripped off of the post. As you see in the picture, Curbside's bin is in front of the post, so the garbage truck took their trash along with my mailbox with it.

I contacted Curbside the following day, and I sent them the photos and videos via email. I received a response that they will forward this information to the owner, Dean, and will get back to me. It has been over a month now and I have heard nothing.

I called Curbside recently and they told me that they sent Dean my info again. I also emailed Dean myself and I have heard nothing from him either. I was going to the post office everyday (Christmas time, so I had a lot of packages) and it was such an inconvenience!

I finally decided to pay out of my own pocket to have a mailbox installed. I am very disappointed with the customer service I've received and would NOT recommend Curbside to anyone unless you want to pay for damage done to your property.

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. They've resolved the problem picked up garbage every week consistently now.

Original review Jan 15, 2024
Unless your given a bad review etc do you guys take these complaints seriously. I noticed after I wrote my first complaint you guys came all early but again left our garbage bin in the middle of the road. OK thats fine you picked it up atleast. Now again this week not one of your trucks in sight and husband has to again call and argue your representatives that you have not picked up our garbage. I'm a caretaker and am here all day during the weekday. So I know when you came or not. Please fix this! We're paying customers and don't deserve to be treated so poorly.

Terrible Business Practices

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I paid annually and still recieved an additional bill later in the year. I also recieved inaccurate bills every year and had to produce my copy of the contract with them. I would end up spending hours every year straightening out their lack of internal communication.

Pros:
  • I guess thru pick up your trash

  • Lack of communication

Thank you

I called to leave Curbside to cancel my service after being with them for a number of years, however after talking with Abbi and her hearing my concerns, she went the extra mile and did some research and gave me a reason to continue with Curbside! I personally appreciate her help and hope her boss thanks her for saving a customer who was ready to leave.

Curbside Customer Service and Pricing

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
After our current waste hauler increased their prices yet again, I got fed up. Tried calling and was put on hold for a hour. Driving through our neighborhood, I noticed numerous curbside containers. A neighbor reported positive services and lower prices for the small container. Contacted Curbside and promptly heard back. I can pay by check and very reasonable price. Goodbye Walters, hello Curbside.

High rates

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
When trying to cancel service because monthly rates are $20.38 higher for garbage pickup and yard waste is $20+ then competition (Not introduction rates). First attempt to cancel they hung up on me. Second attempt put me on hold for over 15 minutes. Told me there was a $200.00 cancellation fee. Dont waste your time or money on a company with constant increasing charges.

Cons:
  • Hard to cancel service
  • High monthly rates compared to competitors

Preferred solution: Upfront notice of how they raise your rates. You will pay more for extra bags. Even with there largest can.

Evening the field

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Most people review because theyre pissed about something and then perspective customers only see the bad news. The truth is that no company is spot on all the time.

Ive been with curbside waste since they began after using several other companies prior. I have had only a few times over the years where garbage wasnt taken on my service dayI calledthey came either later the same day or the following day. Never have they left it for days unless I was very behind in my billing (and I do mean VERY behind-they have still picked up when I was months behind a couple of times). I have NEVER been on hold longer than 5 minutes when calling them for any reason.

Ive never been rudely spoken to either. I havent used every hauler out there but Ive had several and there is not one company that hasnt made the occasional mistakes mentioned in most reviews. Ive never experienced erroneous billing either.

Perhaps some of you freakishly irate people have treated others so rudely they gave you a little what for of your own.think about it. Its fair you get what you give.no one owes you anything you arent willing to give first.
