My cart is broken or missing, what can I do?

Simply let us know and we’ll provide a replacement. Even if it was broken or taken during trash pick up we will not be notified. You may let us know by visiting our office at 2523 East Hwy 76 in Marion or by calling us at 843-423-8234. 

I am behind in payments, what can I do to assure continued trash pickup and what programs are available to help me catch up the balance?

Speak with in person or by phone any of our staff in our office and we’ll explain our Non-Termination Agreement with you.  This Agreement assures both that you will continue having our service, and that we will receive the necessary payment for that service.
