GETTING STARTED WITH PRIDE
Welcome Commercial Customers!
Commercial Garbage Service...
- To set-up service for your business, please call our office at 503-625-6177 and ask to speak with a Commercial Service representative.
- Office Hours: Monday - Friday, 8am - 4:30pm
Container styles & sizes: We provide a variety of garbage receptacles to fit your needs. Lidded metal containers come in 1-yard to 8-yard sizes. Residential-style roll carts come in 20-, 32-, 60-, and 90-gallon sizes. We will consult with you to help determine your best options.
Bag your garbage: Garbage should be bagged before placing in the trash container, especially Styrofoam or packing peanuts. Bagging garbage helps prevent litter, helps prevent materials from getting stuck in the container, and reduces odor.
Avoiding extra garbage fees: If extra garbage is picked up, a charge is assessed. You can avoid these fees by making sure lids on the garbage containers are completely closed (no overflow), and there are no bags on the ground around the receptacle. If you do not want the driver to take extras without a request from you first, please ask us to set the account up in that way.
BASIC COMMERCIAL SERVICES
Garbage and recycling pick-up:
- Industrial lidded metal containers must be accessible to our drivers on your pick-up day at all hours
- Residential-style cans or roll carts must be out for pick-up by 6:00am on your designated pick-up day
Container Placement: We will discuss placement and driver access when we deliver your container(s). Commercial containers are emptied using front-load equipment and straight-on access is required.
Extra pick-up fees: If we are unable to empty the container and you would like us to come back before your next regular pick up day, there may be an extra fee.
Container maintenance: Pride Disposal provides maintenance for the containers that we supply you with. Please call immediately if replacement or repairs are needed.
Co-Mingle Recycling Service...
- For information about your business recycling options and guidelines go to Commercial Recycling.
- Go to the Pride Recycling Depot page for a list of additional items that can be recycled at our on-site facility.
CHANGES TO YOUR SCHEDULED SERVICE
One week advance notice to start, stop, or change service: If you wish to make any changes to your service, please let us know at least one week in advance.
Bad Weather: Severe weather conditions may prevent us from serving you on your regular service day. If so, we will attempt to pick up your materials on the following day. If we are still unable to service your area, we will contact you to arrange pick-up as quickly as possible, at no additional charge.
Holidays: Drivers will work all holidays except Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s Day. During those holiday weeks, service will be one day later — from the holiday through the end of the week (Saturday).
