  1. Horrible service, they wouldnt even pick up 3- 4 small branches! About a foot in length because they werent tied with twine, and let me remind you the width was about as wide as your wrist.

  2. So good at what they do they make me feel bad for not trying harder. Example, I forget to put the trash on the curb, they come up and grab it.
    I don’t break down a giant branch that fell out of a tree, they come up and grab …

  3. Great customer service, easy to chat with on the phone and ever-helpful.
    These folks are out there day-in, day-out, rain or shine. We’re grateful and happy customers.

  4. Their bookkeeping is poor! We have not missed a payment in the 2 years we had them and they called and send a bill saying we didn’t pay in Feb. and April. We can’t do business with someone who can’t keep their billing in order.

  5. Absolutely the best service I have ever had. Your guys are the best.
    From setting the trash/grass container back a ways up the driveway to never leaving anything behind. No mess. Thank You!

  6. 4yrs now….and I’m done bitting my tongue. I’m well aware it takes zero education to work in refuse, but come on. Putting the garbage can in the drive so one has to get out and move the can to get in driveway. I get it, not a huge deal. …

  7. This Refuse service is the BEST in Lincoln. Always there when you expect them. They have friendly staff who go above and beyond. They take all our refuse and leave the area clean. What a great company and group of people.

  8. The crew is always very friendly and courteous. They always place the garbage bin in the driveway but out of the way.this morning I had 4 piles of branches which they removed in a very neat manner there were only a handful of leaves left …

  9. After having a little run in with one of their trucks this morning on my way to work, I reached out to the company, and they were extremely apologetic and very understanding. It’s not often you reach out to a company and someone in …

  10. Amazing service! Always friendly on the phone with any questions we had. The men picking up our garbage always went out of their way to show great service-if we forget to bring to the curb, they come get our garbage can from the top of our …

  11. I tried several times to contact the company regarding a trash route in front of my house. I left two or three messages that were never answered. It took me several attempts to reach someone in the office that had any knowledge about the …

  12. I was leaving Milford on Matzke Hwy and something flew off one of their trucks and smashed my hood and front window. I turned around and stopped the driver explaining what happened he told me who to contact to take care of the problem. I …

  13. I had my recycling bin delivered with the garbage bin. However, it took 2 or 3 phone calls to get my recycling started and picked up. They would pick up my trash and leave the recycling. Now that it’s up and running all is good.

  14. We have been with Uribe Refuse Services since early 2016. We have been very pleased with the service and courtesy of the personnel. It is great to be able to ask questions by email and get a prompt answer. We highly recommend this service.

  15. This place sucks at communicating. We cancelled there service. I called and left a voicemail, sent them something in the mail and after no responses I emailed them because the sent us another bill. And the told me the did not receive anything and we still had to pay. I’m glad I’m done with them.

  16. We have been really impressed with their services. There have been a few times we have forgotten to put the trash out, and they still grabbed it for us anyway which was above and beyond what most garbage companies do. This alone makes them …

  17. Very conscientious and thorough! They always put our garbage can(s) way up in the yard next to the driveway, so we don’t have trouble getting into our garage and always clean up, even on windy days. We’re very happy with the work that Kenny and Jose do for us!

  18. Incredibly unprofessional. When I decided to go with a company that was much cheaper, they called demanding to know why, I explained it was nothing personal just that I’d found cheaper service. At my last pick up they dumped all my …

  19. Constantly not picking up both recycling and trash, never answers the phone no matter what time of day and if you do get someone on the phone it is always the same woman with anger issues who is yelling at you for the slightest …

  20. Always prompt, incredible customer service. They even came back when we forgot to have our container at the curb in the morning. Thanks Uribe refuse, another great locally owned company!

  21. I cannot imagine a better service. From the wonderful man who takes care of us weekly (Dan) and always goes the extra mile, to the lovely office manager who has been a pleasure to speak with, Lincoln is fortunate to have a refuse company …

  22. I had a large amount of dirt and grass to discard along with remnants of a 7×10 deck and they were very helpful and accommodating in answering my questions and figuring out the best plan to haul everything away. I was very pleased with their level of service.

  23. We moved and they tried to increase our bill by $15 a month. Tried to charge us for an extra bin that we already had previously. When I called to ask about it the lady was very rude. I also was charged for yard waste all winter and have …

  24. For the most part the job was done fine. My issue was with the office. Called about trash not being picked up. Blamed me and wanted $15 to come back out. Refused to let me speak with any sort of manager and was vague on whether or not …

  25. Uribe refuse is fantastic. Pick-up is like clockwork. They never drop one scrap of paper when doing the pick-up. If it is windy, they place a brick on the bin after they empty it so it will not blow away. The best service in the world

  26. Uribe is a great service. After forgetting to put my garbage out for 2 weeks, they were kind enough to stop by when they were in the neighborhood. I have had absolutely no issues with them. Thanks guys!

  27. I HAD to use this company when they purchased another recycling company. When I was using them they forgot several times to come get recycling and I had to make calls to remind them. Then, when I moved out of town and tried to cancel …

  28. We’ve been using Uribe for a number of years now and couldn’t be more satisfied with their service – Their Team is responsive, courteous, and helpful. Highly recommend.

  29. Our previous provider, Erickson Refuse, was recently bought out by Uribe. I hoped the service would be as good as before. Wed night I lost a good sized limb from an unhealthy tree. I hurriedly chopped up the bigger pieces and put them by …

  30. Always on time and always pulled trash can off the curb. Would have given them a higher rating but when I cancelled my service , I was told I was paid in full. A month later I get a bill , I called and was told they bill in the rears . So which is it , paid in full or a month behind ?

  31. I give this rating based on me and my husbands conversation to an office lady, who didn’t give her name, and that gals “boss”. I was explaining something to the lady and she just kept interrupting me even as I told her to stop interrupting …

  32. We have used this company now for 5yrs and couldn’t be more happy with them. I run a small in home daycare and every Thursday my children wait for the garbage truck to come, the guys are so friendly they make sure to wave at the kids which make the kids day!! Couldn’t ask for a better company!!

  33. Lady that answered the phone when we cancelled our trash service was rude and contradicting. Glad to be done with them. Husker Refuse has much nicer customer service at a cheaper price as well!

  34. These guys do the best job. Very nice and even roll the container back up the driveway. We switched to Trash Taxi for a while. They were dishonest and had some creative book keeping to raise their rates so we dumped them and went back to Uribe.

  35. My landlord uses them for general trash removal, however, I decided to call them up to setup a recycling pickup. They’re super hard working, even picking up refuse during Labor Day, which did surprise me a little but I guess they take their trash seriously

  36. We’ve been with Uribe for a few years now and have nothing but great things to say. Their office staff is always amazing and professional. Their guys and all their customer service is phenomenal. Very grateful for having Uribe for our services.

  37. I can’t imagine being any more pleased with a service provider. The staff are friendly, the communication is excellent and the price is a great value. I really appreciate how flexible they are with my odd requests, too. It’s obvious they understand customer service. You can’t go wrong with Uribe Refuse!

  38. Best service in town! Love and appreciate my driver, he is always courteous and gets everything. I appreciate that he brings my trash cans up the driveway after he’s finished. You won’t go wrong going with Uribe!

  39. This is a great trash service that we would recommend to anyone. They are very easy to contact and easy to work with. Kudos to the driver this morning working by himself in the Bicentennial neighborhood. Glass bottles smashed on the road …

  40. I’ve always had a great experience when calling Uribe Refuse with my questions or concerns. I often forget to put out my trash bin, but they are always so kind and make the extra effort to grab it anyways! They are also great about picking up the extra trash I put next to the bin if it overflows! I am truly happy with their service.

  41. Not only do they come on time every week, they bring my trash can up my drive closer to my house. I never have trash left or littered. I’ve seen these guys pick up for away trash. There are times our trash is over flowing from clean up …

  42. I’ve been using Uribe for almost a year now. I am happy with their trash & yard waste pick up services. Their recent office staff have been very responsive and friendly to work with. I have seen a lot of improvements over the last couple weeks.

  43. I have always thought highly of Uribe Refuse until they turned me into a collection agency for a bill I didn’t even know I had. We had a rental house that Uribe serviced for many years. About a month before we sold that house, we …

  44. Do yourself a favor and go with HR. We switched from Uribe because we got 3 bins for yard waste/recycle/trash. They missed the yard waste every time. We called with no answer and left a voicemail with no response back. Its more expensive …

  45. Always great service, on time, very respectful of property and always bring the tote up the drive when gathered. Have had many other companies in neighborhood try to get our business, but would never consider changing! Great value too!

  46. I’m a residential Trash, RecycleLink, and Yard Waste customer and appreciate the convenience of AutoPay (thanks to Lily in the office for helping when I couldn’t figure out the set up) and the reliable service Uribe provides!

  47. Uribe Refuse Services took the time to call and straightened out any misunderstanding that we both had and they owned their part of it. They’ve always provided a good pick up service, but their customer service that we received this …

  48. Due to the holiday last week I missed the pick up day for recycle, that was no issue for Uribe. Called them once and they said just leave it out and they would get it picked up. Thinking it might take a day or two I was gladly surprised …

  49. We have had Uribe Refuse Services for 5 years without a single issue. The drivers wave to our kids, they are neat about where they place the bin containers, and are thoughtful of where they park and drive. We had one billing issue where the …

  50. These guys go above and beyond to make you happy as a customer! We forgot to get our recycling out to the curb and they made a special trip to come back and pick it up at no charge to us. I tell all my friends and neighbors about Uribe …

  51. We have had Uribe Refuse for weekly waste removal, recycling and yard waste. Uribe provides great reliable and friendly service. I’m inspired to write this after another helpful encounter with office staff. I’m glad to have Uribe keep our refuse needs handled very well. Thank you!

  52. We have had Uribe for many years and they are amazing! We’ve been putting them to the test this year with all the tree branches and brush we’ve put on the curb thanks to mother nature’s crankiness and they always take care of it each and …

  53. I’ve received amazing service the past 3 years I’ve utilized this company. They grab my trash bin when I forget to take it to the curb, always put my bins back in their place after dumping, and take extra items sat next to the bin that wouldn’t fit. The workers are always friendly and polite.

  54. I’ve been with Uribe Refuse for almost 2 years and they’ve been perfect for that entire time. Always professional when I call, always on time (they’ve literally never missed a pick-up date due to weather or broken down trucks), and their …

  55. Today is very windy here in Seward, I was concerned our trash container would take fight! Not to worry! After emptying it , the fellow on the truck had brought all the way to the house & placed it out of the wind. I greatly appreciated his actions!

  56. We have had Uribe for the past few years. The service has always been top notch. The drivers are always on time, friendly and professional. When I have had to call into the office the staff has been helpful and answered all of my questions regarding recycle and trash. Would definitely recommend them!

  57. We have been happy customers of Uribe’s trash and recycling services since 2004. Over the years we have had a few interactions with their customer service folks — including the owner — and we have always come away pleased with the …

  58. Scheduled an interview, then they started changing the time and asking questions via texts no problem there, but then when I asked questions back and asked to reschedule for to morrow they refused and said they picked up red flags and cancelled all together.

  59. We have been with Uribe FOREVER! When my father was ill the men would come get the trash can and bring it back for him, wave and chat with him when he was outside. Every time I call they are very responsive and helpful! I give them 10+ ⭐️

  60. Communication in their office is not good. I ended up canceling my service with them. I was super bummed. However, a nearby neighbor told me about a cheaper service that picks up twice as much! I am happy to find a positive out of an …

  61. Our business worked with Jason at Uribe on getting a roll-off container at a project we were doing. He was great to work with and had every thing in place right when we need it. When we called him asking if there was any way the roll off …

  62. Great bunch of folks to work with. They arrive each week at the same time and replace tote in such a way that it doesn’t blow away. Any time I call the office, they are so friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this family-owned business.

  63. We’ve been using Uribe for about 10 years now. Always happy with their service and rates year over year. Gave them a call yesterday evening to ask about hauling away an old couch and the rep was super polite and helpful.

  64. My family has used Uribe services for years. This year I too began using Uribe for my own residence. My family and I are horribly disappointed with how down hill Uribe and their customer service is becoming. Kelly from the office has been …

  65. Just switched to Uribe the end of August. Was surprised when I called their office and someone answered the phone! The lady who helped me was great and explained everything to me. I was amazed when my garbage was picked up on Labor Day …

  66. When we bought our first home in October of 2020, we were still learning and trying to remember all the minor things, such as getting in a routine to put the trash by the curb. Some days it was forgotten, but Uribe helped us out by coming …

  67. I spoke with Shannon today, and not only was she friendly, but also extremely helpful! I was able to set up service for us and another family member. She made the process go very smoothly. I believe the customer service I received today was top notch.

  68. They have excellent service. They are respectful.i noticed they don’t block the street nor drive on the wrong side of the road when picking up. This is not like other carriers. They have even been known to grab our retainers when we were gone or forgot to ok it it out.

  69. We have had great experiences with their trash and recycle services. On a few occasions we have forgotten to put our bin out and they are very accommodating in trying to get a pick up for us. They are respectful of our property and have great customer service.

  70. Love everything about Uribe! They are on time, put receptacles closer to house after pick up, respectful of property, alert us early about any changes involving holiday delivery, and are always available for questions. I’m one pleased customer!

  71. I have been an Uribe customer for many (15+) years. They provide on time quality service every week. Even when my bins have not been out on time, they saw to it that the trash was picked up. Exceptional service both curbside and when needing to contact the office. Highly recommend!!

  72. Michelle has answered questions for me and the crew that’s picks up our garbage are AWESOME! We’ve had some large piles of garbage including mattresses and box springs, heavy items etc..and it’s all been taken away hassle free! Have even …

  73. Uribe bought my route from someone who had done my trash pick up for 60 years. I live out in the country and have physical limitations and a driveway that prevent me from carrying things more than a certain distance. Uribe provides special …

  74. I had forgotten to take my trash out over Labor Day weekend and it was getting pretty full they were kind enough to go out of their way to pick it up after my original pick up date was very pleased with the service

  75. I originally signed up for food waste services from WTEL because I was interested in composting. But a few months later, I switched my trash, yard waste and recycling over to them, and it was a good decision. They have offered the best trash service in Lincoln. I don’t plan on leaving anytime soon.

  76. I can’t be more pleased with the service that Uribe has provided. From the crews that pickup the refuse to the office workers. Michelle was a great help in solving a bill issue. I had an expired card. I recommend Uribe to all my neighbors and friends. Thank you guys and keep it up!

  77. My husband work for Uribe Refused. Even thought my husband don’t work there anymore we still have Uribe for garage pick up. We love the worker that work there. They always pick up on Time and take our trash can back up to the driveway. I …

  78. We value all the services Uribe has to offer. They are always on time and can literally help you remove anything you can think of. The office staff and guys in the field are professional and efficient. Thank you for being an outstanding company. We appreciate you guys!

  79. We live on an Acreage, on top of a hill, without a suitable windbreak. We usually leave our recycling receptacle at the end of the Driveway to be emptied. On this particular day, I knew if I left it there, it would have certainly blown …

  80. We have had Uribe Refuse for about 4 years now, ever since we moved back from Japan, where we lived for 40 years. There are many things we miss about Japan, one of the biggest being their service. Bar none, one of the best in the world in …

  82. We had Uribe Refuse in a previous home and thought they were top-notch. When we moved to our current location, we had another service which sold out to Uribe. Uribe did not disappoint us and were just as good as we remembered. We appreciate …

  83. I started service with Uribe last fall. I am beyond impressed with them thus far. They come when expected, always push my totes back nicely, take any extras I need removed and when I have been out & they come by, they are very friendly. I …

  84. Terrible, just terrible! They tell you your bill is paid in full then a month later send you a double bill and charge you a late fee! By the way DONT give them your banking information, they will withdrawal funds without approval!

  85. I always have issues. They have backed their entire truck into my driveway and taken my trash when I didn’t have it out. They are sometimes too early. The drivers lie about pickups, when I have a camera to prove things. My landlord pays for the removal, but I would change companies in a heartbeat.

  86. Uribe provides excellent services, even on occasion when our trash bins are not on the curb, they make the effort to walk up to the house to grab them. When we’ve had larger items that need to go, they’ve always accommodated picking them up!

  87. When other refuse services let us down, Uribe was always there to help us out. Their willingness to go out of their way when we aren’t always ready says mountains of things about how the are an outstanding company. …

  88. I been with them for 6 years. Never had a problem until recently. Going through a nasty divorce and the ex typically paid the trash bill with my card. So I got behind a couple of months. Bill was $239, I paid $100 July 1st and was planning …
