I have used Canology for several years now. They are awesome. Hands down! Very professional, they deliver as promised, excellent job, are able to accomodate last minute scheduling emergencies. Can't say enough wonderful things about them. They truly care about their customers. read more

Excellent service! They were available the next day after we made our request, arrived during the agreed window, and most importantly, our cans were spotless after service. Communication was great - enough that I felt informed but not overwhelmed. The price was reasonable, too. read more

I am totally pleased with the service provided by Canology. I just wish that I had called them sooner. My green bin was rescued from its near "biohazard" status and I no longer have to hold my breath when I walk by my bins. It is a great service and value. read more

I have used Canology twice a year for several years. They always do a great job -- the bins are spotless. I am really grateful for this service. read more

Look over the contract as I signed up initially for the service at a discounted price of $16.95 thinking that was the cost going forward, which was not the case. It was $22.00 for the following months going forward. I requested to cancel the service and was told that there would be a $95.00 charge for the one service, if I didn't remain for the minimum of three months. This was not advertised nor shown anywhere on their web site nor was I advised of such in the initial contract. In speaking to the customer service, the person admitted that they neglected to have that advisement posted anywhere on their website. I chose to pay the three months service and cancel the remaining as I didn't have the time to argue my point with the person as I was not getting any assistance. This was by far not a good way to win a customer nor to get any recommendations for the service. Customer beware. read more

I love it. We clean quarterly. All the compost, dirty diapers, dog poop bags, BBQ ash etc really can destroy our bins. It's a literal breath of fresh air after canology cleans them out. read more

I took advantage of a half off special for a one time cleaning of my three trash cans. Signing up was so easy. A confirmation is received right away and then they put your in a schedule. You can change it if needed. The day before you receive a text reminder and also the morning of. I did everything on my phone. I heard noises outside this morning and went to look. Power washing the cans is first. He washed inside and outside. He takes a little extra elbow grease if he sees something. Then the cans go upside down on the truck and is washed with 200 degree water. Down they come and some additional touch up. They"re drained and wiped down. A spray of deodorant is added and a nice tag that the job was complete. Nice clean cans! I would definitely do it again down the road. You can get weekly service too! Thank you, Canology! read more

I would give this 10 stars if I could. Signing up for service was a breeze. I love the communication, very thorough and up to date. We would nearly pass out every time we open our garage and compost bin. After today's cleaning, they look like new. I really don't believe it. Did they just replace mine with new ones?!?!? Highly recommend! read more

So glad I finally got around to signing up for this fabulous service. Great service, text reminder, fast work with not much water waste and clean cans (so much better than I can do on my own). Money well spent. read more

I tried this service for the first time a few weeks ago. I'm very satisfied with the job they did on my bins. The bins were absolutely disgusting and they're really clean now. Good communication and the tech (?) was very professional and attentive. I'm glad I found Canology. read more

Cans are clean! Love the customer service and real time communication. You get texts on the day of the time window that they will be there, then another that they are on their way. Professional, prompt, and helpful. I have had to change my scheduled date due to vacation and it was so easy to change. read more

I am very happy with service, and I am about to schedule them again to clean my trash and recycling bins. I had a service in October 2023, and it is Feb 2025 as I write this review (it has taken me so long to get around to writing this just because I am always really busy). At the time in Oct 2023, I had read a few reviews on Yelp that said that there was poor communication with Canology, which made me hesitate, but I scheduled them anyway because my bins were so incredibly dirty. I'm glad I did! I placed on online service order on 10/16/24. I was a bit confused regarding when the cleaning would occur, so I left a voicemail message on 10/29/23 and Carla called me back the next day with an informative answer. Shout out to Carla, I owe you a very belated thank you! Everything went smoothly. My bins were cleaned on 11/9/23 and they practically sparkled!! Today I am going to request another clearning, as my bins are struggling again (I think that's the most clever euphemism I have ever used in my life). read more

Valuable services , well worth the time and effort to get this job done highly recommend. I use quarterly service and add the next date to my calendar so I don't forget to leave cans out!!! read more

I have to change my review from 5 stars to 2. The actual cleaning is great, but this company is so disorganized that I am cancelling my subscription. Endless mixups with the date of service, huge website problems and today I received a notice that my cans will be cleaned at an address in Livermore. Problem is that I live in Berkeley! There comes a point where apologies don't help anymore. read more

These guys are great! Smelly yucky cans - especially the green one come out sparkling clean - and each time they clean them there a little better! They let you have monthly, semimonthly, quarterly, annual - you name it! Test you whene they are coming and when they are done - HIghly recomment read more

I took yearly twice cleanings for 3 cans it just came out to $15 per can with 25% discount that they gave me. My cans were so dirty and smelly and now it looks like new and fresh smell. Thanks for your amazing service. read more

I had a really gross rotting food situation in my green waste bins and Canology saved me! I will definitely be using them again, but more regularly!! read more

I definitely recommend Canology. My trash cans were gross, especially the green bin. I saw a tag on a neighbor's trash can one day while walking the dog and ordered their service. They've come out twice now and my cans are spotless. This is a great service; one I'm willing to pay for. Believe me, I cleaned my cans once and that was one time too many. read more

Our experience with Canology has been great since day one. Signing up was a breeze, and I find the service they provide to be high value for the cost (the cost is very affordable). They send out reminders the week before and day before each cleaning and even allow you to track time of arrival day of cleaning. After each cleaning our bins are left fresh and good as new. No more sticky and stanky bins for us. Side note: Customer service is excellent. So helpful and polite. read more

This was a referral from a friend. I had no idea a business like this existed. this beat me getting out there with a stiff broom and the hose trying to clean my garbage cans. The staff on the phone was very helpful and clear about the service and scheduling. They were on -time and did just what they said they would do. Watching the worker, he was meticulous in his work. Making sure the cans were really clean if that means giving a once more wash. Very satisfied. It's also reasonably priced. Will use it again. I didn't sign up for the regular quarterly service, but will definitely consider it. read more

This is a great service! The water and can debris go into the truck not down our gutter then into our sewer system. Check out their website to see how they reclaim the water. Please check them out, I've been using this service for about 4 years. https://trycanology.com/ read more

The can was cleaned thoroughly. Their procedure to clean is top notch. You can depend on the quality of their work. The price and the service is well worth signing up as a reoccurring customer. Five Stars !!!!? read more

It is difficult to cancel the service. They send notices via a noreply email that doesn't respond to let you know it's a no reply address. They refused to honor my email request to cancel which I made months ago and are still going to charge me for this 3rd cleaning even though I tried to cancel after my 1st cleaning. I understand I made an error but it feels as if they were being intentionally difficult to not honor my efforts to cancel. read more

No more dragging disgusting trash bins. Canology does one thing, and they do it right. The communication is automated and seamless. You set up the service, and they come the day after your trash is picked up to clean up one or all the bins. They send reminders and are super accurate with the timing. No need to interact; just sit back and watch your compost bin getting so clean that you would feel safe taking an ice bath in it. read more

I had my first can cleaning with Canology today. The email notifications before and after service were great. Marcus was on time, explained the process, answered my questions, and was professional. The cans, inside and out, have never been this clean and never smelled so good. The cleaning operation was clean and efficient. Exceptional service and customer service which are rare these days. I am sold. Michael, Pleasanton read more

Just do it. If you're like me, you looked up this company because your trash/compost/recycling bin is so gross that it's beyond what you're capable of tolerating and therefore cannot wash it yourself. Requesting service from their website was very easy. From sign up to having cleaned bins, I didn't have to interact with any person. The most difficult decision was how often to get them cleaned, but you have the flexibility to change the frequency online so you can adjust as needed. They came, they cleaned, and they left. Fast, efficient, super duper clean. I mean, like-new clean. Considering what they saved me from doing, I find their prices very, very reasonable. I signed up for the quarterly service, but might change to the monthly service just to experience the glee from clean bins. read more

I can't say enough good things about the service! This has truly been a game-changer for my household. The attention to detail was remarkable, at the end of the job they will spray the inside and outside with disinfect spray left with clean and fresh smell cans. I have already recommended the service to my family and friends, and they've had the same fantastic experience. read more

I love this service. I started by having all three of my cans cleaned on their introductory plan. They do a topnotch job, taking care to really make sure inside and out are sparkling and fresh smelling. They have quite the truck to do the job, and both times the fellow was really nice and very courteous. For my second service, my housemate forgot it was happening and put stuff in all the cans after they had been collected but before Canology could come. I made a last minute change, again, the phone customer service very accommodating and professional. My recycle and garbage cans don't get all that dirty inside. The best thing they do is my big green compost bin which gets funky and filthy. So going forward, Bimonthly seems bout right. Maybe Inwill spiff up the whole set once a year. read more

I'm a little disappointed as don't see through cleaning from outside and inside of trash bins as patches there. read more

We are hard on our trash cans. They get disgusting. When I first heard of the service where they come clean your cans, I jumped at it. You can choose whether monthly or bimonthly, quarterly, etc. The folks at canology make this process easy and pleasant. Our cans are sparkling clean after they come. All their support systems are efficient and their team is super nice. Cant recommend them more highly. read more

They were on time and did a great job just like last year! They were even able to clean some spilled paint from one of the cans that I didn't expect them to clean. Thank you! read more

This is a really cool concept. I've tried cleaning garbage cans on my own and it was a disaster. canology arrived when they said they would, they were done so fast and super clean. The road wasn't even dirty. Cost wise was fair too especially since all three of our cans were a mess! read more

New homeowner here and was not happy with the condition the previous owner left the bins (gross!). Jason came out today after just booking two days ago. They look like brand new, smell fresh and clean. I will be using this service to keep them sanitized and fresh since I store in garage. Thanks again! Highly recommend. read more

Real happy with the service! Had all 3 of my cans cleaned to check out the service (nice "first time" coupon too). Great communication and provided a reasonable window for the time of cleaning. All cans sparkled after, including the compost bin. Highly recommend and will definitely use again! read more

Despite only using my trash, compost, and recycling bins for only 2 years mysterious gunk has managed to find it's way in the bins causing a gross odor. For awhile I was using a hose and bleach trying to clean it up myself but things would still be stuck to the bottom (it also wasnt a pleasant job). One day while walking the dog I saw a neighbor getting their trash bins cleaned by Canology! I googled them immediately and signed up for the service. The first service date was 3 weeks out so I called Canology to see if it could be done any sooner but they mentioned that they only reach certain regions during specific times of the month. Fast forward to today where I received my first Canology service. My bins came back sparkly clean on the inside (the outside not so much) and came back citrusy fresh. My only feedback is that their email was a bit misleading and I thought their services included taking up to 2 bags of trash. That's not the case they're saying you can have up to two bags of bagged trash in your trash bin and they will still clean your bin and put the trash back (if its more than that I assume they reschedule your appt and charge you the reschedule fee). read more

The person came and did a great job! I am very pleased with this service. I will be a returning customer... read more

My trash bins were filthy, so I decided to give them a try, especially since they offer a half off coupon for first timers. It was so easy to book online! They send a reminder email ahead of time to remind you to keep your bins out. Then, day of, there's even a link to track to see where they are! So, you can get a pretty good idea of when they'll be cleaning your cans. They are really able to get the entire can pretty clean using their truck which you wouldn't be able to do yourself. I like to clean things myself, so when I pay someone to do it for me, I like to know that they're doing a very thorough job (more than I could do!). Afterwards, they put a little tag on them to let you know they've been cleaned, but really, I could already tell by looking at them! And they smelled nice, too! I'm likely going to sign up for their subscription service. read more

I used them for our HOA Cans 2x per year for 3 years with great results. I recently moved to Oakland Hills and the cans provided by the previous homeowner were disgusting and Waste Management wouldn't provide new cans. Canology driver was onsite for 15 mins and cleaned three cans. All are spotless for $44. read more
