"I cannot say enough about the great service I have received from Steve and Tara. We sold our building and they provided us with three roll-off dumpsters. When one was full, we called and had a new one delivered the next day. They picked up the full one after hours so we were ready to go the next day. Steve is very professional and goes out of his way to accommodate his customers' needs. Tara is super friendly and you always get an answered call. Their rates and customer service are so much better than their competitor in town."
