lawn treatment

We're very happy with the services we have now. We have an annual contract, so they give us six treatments at a regular interval of time. They come when I'm not there, so I only get the bill. Price is comparatively OK. Next year I will explore more options, because I can find there are a few other options I could have gotten for a cheaper rate as well. They use a brand name, so that is probably where they get the most money. Quality-wise, they are OK. If I still find the weeds, then I can just give them a call and they come back and they do the treatment without any cost, so they're pretty prompt on that, so I like that. Responsiveness is very good. I would probably use them again if they lower down the price.
Description of Work: Lawn treatment. They use some kind of a weed chemical so that they can remove all the weeds from the lawn, and then they do the fertilizer so the lawn could be green. Those are the type of treatments they are doing for the lawn.

Overall visits are good they do what they are supposed to do, we pay more this year because we have waste yard pick up, and they take up to 6 bags a week that don’t weigh over 75lbs
Description of Work: They pick up anything that we leave out that is not flammable, or over 75lbs, they will take mattresses as long as they are cut up, good about picking up recyclables also

We have had repeated issues with the driver on our route that collects the recycling. Over the past several months, the driver has been yelling slurs at the house and gesturing as he drives past the house, refusing to pick up our recycling. When he first missed our container, I approached him at the next house and simply said that he missed our recycling. The rude language and gestures have not been restricted to us, but has been experienced by other homeowners on the block. We have gone so far as to repeatedly contact the village and his supervisor. We even filed a formal police report after he used sexually suggestive gestures at my wife win my young daughter was home. Nobody seems to care and the only response we get from his supervisor is, "well, he is teamsters and we can't do anything about it." Our last resort is to stop utilizing our recycling bin and place everything in the trash bin. Hopefully that will keep him from slowing down in front of our house. Nothing like feeling helpless against the harassment. Unfortunately, our service is set up thru the Village and we are unable to switch to another provider so we are stuck with the harassment and abuse from a disgusting trash collector.

I do not have a lot of options in my area, but I think that they do a good job. When I did have one issue that I needed solved, I called the company and they dealt with it within one week. They leave the cans so I know that they have been there, but not in the road or drive. They do a good job.
Description of Work: I hire this company to collect the garbage at the end of my driveway once a week.

A little pricey and my garbage cans are always strewn across the street when they leave BUT LET ME TELL YOU... THESE GUYS WILL PICK UP AN AMAZING AMOUNT OF TRASH WITHOUT CHARGING ME EXTRA OR COMPLAINING. I am continually shocked and appreciative of what I can put out including pieces of furniture and what they'll take. That makes it worth the price. And this is despite the corporate literature that limits the amount of trash they'll take.
Description of Work: $90 service every 3 months.
