I have been a residential Alpine customer for about 6 years. I was only doing monthly pickup…read morerecently (was doing weekly for the 5 years prior). I was away last week and missed the pickup. my own fault but come this week I went out to ask the guy doing pickups if he wouldn't mind taking it today. He responded with an absolute "No" and that I was out of luck. Then proceeded to tell me I should have done it on my scheduled date. While he does not have any obligation to to do so as it was indeed my fault for not being around the previous week, I feel that it was a small gesture since Alpine was already paid for the pickup. I was standing in front of the driver, next to the garbage can I mentioned and he couldn't be bothered. This is what customer service looks like in 2015. Looks like Waste Management, reFuse or someone else local can thank you for a new customer.

I would have to say in all my years of dealing with people in terms of what we buy in our life, this one experience stands out. I expressed this gratitude today, learning how to write this review.

Gates locked, no one on site, and the phone message saying they were busy on the other line LOL. No signs noting it was closed for a specific reason AND I called the day before and the man told me they are open tomorrow (being today, Saturday) from 830 to 5. While we were there 6 other groups of people showed up with tons of stuff loaded in their cars and trucks and we all sat baffled at them being closed. What a joke and a waste of time, thanks!

We didn't see anyone at the recycling place, but that didn't seem to matter…read more We drove down the industrial zoned area looking for an attendant, an entrance, a signpost, but all we saw was. just a big pile of junk. We backed up to the entrance and tossed our dryer pieces on another pile of dryer pieces and bid the dump a fine adieu. There were no instructions for paying to dump, etc. I would have coughed up a few bucks. Having a place to leave a junk appliance is great. But, Mr Bishop, help us understand how your business works.

We waited, and a minute later a man came around the truck and signalled that we can't drive through there. I yelled that I lived there and need to get home. He started yelling, " oh f#@k, so now I have to move the f#@king truck. Well you'll just have to f#@king wait." He yelled some other profanities and walked closer to our vehicle. We then drove off since we knew he was in a bad mood. Parked down a side street and walked home. I emailed the company to let them know. No email back as of yet.

I came to Island County ("the dump") to get rid of a carpet Grandma had when spending a few days…read morewith her. The carpet was large and we were charged a flat rate. We were able to back the car up to the dumpster area and get close enough that there was not too much wrestling to get the carpet into the dumpster. She had some other items she was thinking of getting rid of, such as paint, and when we asked about disposal we learned that oil-based and water-based paints required different disposal procedures. Learned something new on our visit. We went in the morning soon after it opened for the day and it was not too busy, the worker at the entrance where we paid the flat fee was friendly, full of insight, and eager to share what she knew to help out.

If you're looking for a place to dispose of large items household goods yard waste and even…read morehazardous materials this is the place. It was my first time going to a dump around in this area and they're not that easy to find but I came across this one and it is open seven days a week that accepts virtually anything before disposal. It's a little intimidating cuz it's very massive but once you're in they way your vehicle with your disposable Goods they allow you to go back into the area where you get rid of your disposables and then on the way out yeah, the way your vehicle and then they charge you the difference. I had a bunch of stuff from the house several toilets broken mirrors frames and a bunch of other stuff several hundred pounds ended up costing me 30 bucks.
