I am so disgusted with Republic Trash service. I have had a can of trash and yard waste sitting out for 3 weeks and they refuse to empty it because it is not in their blue can. The can it is in is the exact same size and shape as theirs. The supervisor I spoke to at first told me it would be picked up as a bulk item but someone cancelled that order. Then I was toLd they would pick it up if I paid extra. This is just another ploy to make consumers pay more for an already overpriced service. If I could I would switch to anothe... read more

I dont even know where to start but I will say if you have a container and want to cancel services do not get anything over the phone as a confirmation ! We called to cancel services due to a move after having services since 02/2020no one even said a word about canceling and having a Liquidation fee of 6 months which I just came to find out now after moving a month and a half ago. So now we have been charged still even though over the phone they said theyd pick up and everything was scheduled to be cancelled. Come to find ou... read more

Republic Services has gotten worse and worse over the years an absolutely runs a fraudulent business. They constantly raise prices until they are over double the other local services are charging. In the past 2-3 years the service level has dropped off the charts. About once every two months they completely cancel their pickup all together. At least twice a month they call to say they can't make the schedule. I had called and got them to cut their price in half so I staid a little longer but the service level was just not vi... read more

Took 2 months to pick up Dumpster. They tried 1 time after I called them at 3 weeks, during a heavy rain, tore up the yard. I called after 1 week from then, all they said was a supervisor would call me, I did not ask for that, just get the dumpster. No call, no pick up. Called several times, no call back, never picked it up. Horrible communication, horrible service. they just did not care nor did they care what they did to the yard.

Republic Services is horrible. While there collection has improved over time, as have their notifications when service will be delayed, their billing and customer service is the worst imaginable. I am set up with autopay, for payment in full every quarter. My credit card on file is up to date. They cahrge a different amount every quarter and sometimes change the billing cycle. They keep charging me late fees. When I call to question how I can have paid late when I have autopay, they just blame me and say I must have set it u... read more

Republic Services have missed pickups at my home and my neighbors on either side of me all of the time. [at least once a month] I constantly call and they say they will pick up trash on next business day. That never happens. We are all seniors and have mobility problems. Why am I always LIED to? It is a shame that Republic Services does not care about the people. A lot of my friends have ****** Waste and Recycling and have no problems at all. Shame on you Republic Services. All you are interested is money and not the custome... read more

I am so frustrated with Republic Services, or maybe they should change their name to Republic Non Services. We had prepaid to have weekly lawn refuse picked up beginning the first full week of April, per their website. Today's date is 5/28/22 and we have had a total of 3 pick **** I have called too many times to count, but nothing happens. Yesterday, as our lawn refuse bin sat at the end of our driveway unemptied once again, I called ***************** I asked for a credit to our account for services not rendered and I was to... read more
