I have republic. $60 quarterly for trash and recycle once a week. Recycle is a very large blue bin with wheels. Only down fall is they don't pick up large stuff like limbs and so on.

I use Waste Pro ($94/quarter) for biweekly pickup. No recycle. I've placed several large items out and they have always taken them. No yard waste unless it is in a bag though.

I may look into Republic. I really don't need biweekly pickup. Thanks dlambe5...

I think you mean 2x a week. Bi weekly is every other week. I don't think you'd want your trash picked up 1x a month.

Anyways, after looking a little bit, it looks like Allied Waste and Republic are the same company. I thought they were different because the seller's realtor said I have a choice of Republic or Allied.

Use Waste Pro, 2 times a week and i have a small recycle bin, not on wheels. I think if you have WastePro you had to do something in particular to get the recycle bin, not sure what i did though

Does republic supply the garbage can or do you use your own?

I forgot who we have but it was the cheapest of the three that we had to choose from (may have been Dale's but I think they sold out to someone else). No issues so far and its been 6 years.
Next time that Republic truck comes down my street I've got a surprise for that arse for turning too wide and leaving a rut in my yard.

I use waste pro and have been happy with them. They pick up twice a week and recycle once a week. You have to provide your own cans but they will pick up small misc. stuff left in your yard too.
My neighbor has allied and they won't pick up anything unless it is in the can.

You can choose who picks up your garbage? Didn't know this was possible in places

Yep. New to me. Pretty awesome. I just set up a republic account. They provided me with a can for $50. No contract. Month by month.

Only thing I don't like is they only pick up 1x a week in my hood. I may have to go up an extra $60 per year for 2 cans 1x a week or another contractor that does 2x a week. But I'm gonna give it a trial run with 1 can 1x a week first. I'm just used to my garbage being picked up 2x a week in BR.

That was me lol. I was just kind of legit confused because I didn't know how often I could get my trash picked up.
