Great service!
Fabulous workers…nice and courteous
They have a monopoly in the area and they know it. You will be treated like their business: Trash
I’ve been using Area Refuse since 2015 and have always had good service.
We have had this service for 1.5 years now. They are always here when suppose to be. Never have had a problem.
They would get 5 stars if they would not be so rough with our cans and not through them in our flower garden,
I’ve used these guys for dumpster services — they drop off a dumpster, I fill it up, they take it away. Easy to work with. No problems.
We have had them for 6 months now and they bill me on time and pick my trash up on time. What more could you ask for.
Trash is always picked up on time. Anytime I have questions they are quick to respond both by e-mail and phone.
Never had a problem, put the garbage out the night before and they will pick it up. Today I was a little late and they circled back and got my recycling, thanks!!
They always miss ether the trash or recycling and will not correct their error. Worst service in Carroll, Howard and Frederick countys. Other trash companies are way better. Look elsewhere!
I prepaid this “family owned”company who refuses to pick up my trash even though I have paid ahead for their services.Their “receptionist”(family I wonder?”)informed me that the driver refuses to pick up my trash because my cars are parked …
They are the worst trash service in Carroll County and I have a trash can lid that is broken and this morning I watched them throw my broken lid on the ground and they refused to pick it up and put it back on. I don’t like when they come in the middle of the night.
Not at all pleased with their complete lack of response to my personal property damage claim or their lack of ability to empty everything out of the trash cans. They shouldn’t have caused the personal property damage to begin with, but to ignore it is just rude!
I have called multiple times with cans left in driveway where I have to stop in the road move cans out of driveway and then pull in. This should not be a issue to start with and have to keep calling to discuss.
we are set for 2 times a week pick up. they do not pick up when scheduled and keep giving excuses about why. when we call we keep getting the same story that they should be but for some reason are not.
We have had this service for 3 months and I have had to call them 10 times. Their trucks are always breaking down resulting in my trash not getting pick up at its regular time. When they pick up they ALWAYS throw my trashcans all over the place. I am on the verge of needing to buy new trashcans.
Sad to say but I must agree with the other reviewers. The woman who “works” in the office is so rude. I called to ask why the men never close the trash cans when its pouring rain and I was told “they can’t please everybody”. After I …
Terrible company to work with. They left trash in the bottom of our cans twice in the few months we’ve been using them. Now they threw and busted 2 of our trash cans and will not replace them. Don’t waste your time with these people.
Worst drivers around. No respect for pedestrians. Nearly ran over my 3 and 5 year old daughters while speeding through our neighborhood going at least 40-50 mph. Scared my kids to death. The driver proceeded to continue his high speed on …
The company I work for is to have the trash removed from the dumpster twice a week (Tuesdays and Fridays). Here it is Thursday and they still have not come. They decide what day they want to come and this happens on a weekly basis, if …
New resident to the county. Two weeks in a row, they have a “new” driver and can’t follow the schedule. Windy day both days spent hours picking up trash out of my neighbors yards who now are mad at us for Fogle’s bs. Still paying and have now had to go to the dump twice. DO NOT USE THEM!! Plenty of options in the county.
Once again our trash can is “BROKEN” I call, one person tells me they are very sorry and they’ll will give me the trash can at no charge. The next day they tell me I have to pay quarterly for it. They constantly break our trash cans and …
They have been our service since 1994. We didn’t choose the cheapest service, but observed employees and how they performed as we saw them. They have never let us down. They are unfailingly polite and thoughtful to us all and any pets we have had over time. Blessed by them!
My next neighbor moved out over two months ago, and trash cans that belong to Area Refuse Service were on the street for the whole time. I called the company three times, and they said they were getting them the next day, but they never …
I’ve been a customer for a while now but the other day when I to pick up my cans after they were done, they were covered with dark sludge grease all over the sides and handles. When I called to complain the person answering the phones, all …
My trash/recycle pick-up day is Thursday. More than once I’ve come home to find the recycling can unemptied. Today/Friday I called Area Refuse because my unemptied recycling can was again sitting in the driveway. Their receptionist …
Had issues with their pickup service and actually posted a bad review of the company as well as brought to their attention after changing to a different service provider about the payment that was just given. …
I have been using Area Refuse since December 2016, so a little over a year. At first I had to call and ask why they hadn’t taken everything. The person I spoke to has always been very polite. Since the first few months of them not always …
I was skeptical after reading all of the reviews. I have never had a problem with Area Refuse and have been with them for 2 years now. Prices are reasonable for all of their services. When I call into the office the staff is always …
Rude people when you call them. Picked up recycling with trash at the same time on several occasions. What’s the point in recycling? Sometimes they arrive so late in the day you wonder if they are showing up at all. If you call to check on your pick up they are always rude.
We’ve used Area Refuse since moving to the area four years ago. In the beginning we were frequently missed for either trash or recycling, but a call to the office always had the issue remedied the same or next day. Pricing is not the lowest …
Have never used this company and they stole our recycling dumpster. Zero stars do not recommend. Even hung up on me after admitting they took it and then ignored my calls.
I live at the end of my street, there’s no thru traffic. My cans are skipped over quite often, even if I place them practically in the road. Less than 6 months left on my lease at this point, but after we move I will be looking for a more reliable service.
The absolute worst trash company I’ve ever dealt with. Signed up and enrolled in autopay. Somehow my card never got charged and they stopped coming until I called them to figure out what was wrong. After that issue was resolved still dealt …
I have nothing but great things to say about ARS! I use them for residential trash and recycle, yard waste removal, business dumpsters and bulk hauls. If a rare occasion happens and I do need to call, they get right on it without …
I cannot say enough good things about Area Refuse. Their office team is phenomenal. Melissa and Rita are so prompt and responsive either on the phone or by email it’s amazing. I emailed them about needing another Dumpster Roll-off because …
