The refuse center is really nice and the weekly pickups have been fine…For a small town they have it figured out

Just moved here permanently and so had to get rid of a few truck loads of stuff. I found the staff from the front office to the dump site to be polite and professional. The guys that pick up trash weekly are likewise polite and professional.

I’ve never felt so dissatisfied with a trash service in my life. I had several instances where I called to get my trash picked up because they did not pick up when supposed to. When I called, they were extremely rude. I asked them to please come get my trash as I pay for this service and I have trash piling up in my trash cans in my house. They explained they would come to pick up the next morning and were extremely rude. They committed to picking up trash the next morning but did not come either and I never received a courtesy call. I even took a picture proving I put it out the next the day. I would never use them again. Their customer representatives are also very unprofessional and have terrible customer service. Do not use this trash company. Terrible

You can dump almost anything there are just different fees and rules for certain items. Batteries, engines, vehicles, biohazard, and oils are some things you need to go in and talk to them to make sure they are disposed of correctly. You cant dump bodies or animals I believe. If you have a direct question about an item or fees you can contact them mon thru friday 8-5 or email http://www.southtahoerefuse.com/contact
