About to close on a house. Apparently it's not in an area of Lexington serviced by the city I guess. The seller currently has Republic. Not heard of them, but have heard of Rumpke. Wondering if y'all had any opinions on them (or others besides them), regarding prices, service, etc.?

The Paddock mostly only uses organic material and we compost. For those that do have waste, we have people that take care of such things. Ask Rafters.
This should be pretty far down on your list of concerns when buying a home.You pay, they pick it up.
Rumpke **** in my mailbox three times.
I have Republic here in Louisville. They're fine, but like another poster said, it's pretty low on my list of things to worry about.
I think my rate is like $15 per month.
One thing I don't really care for is that they require you to have all trash in the bins or they won't pick it up. They have those mechanical arm trucks where no garbage man has to get out. However, they gave me two bins, so the only time it's a problem is around Christmas time with all of the damn trash from the kids' crap.

I can't tell you which one to choose. But you should know that most all trash pick up services are controlled by the mafia. Be careful who you choose.
Oh, it's not a concern in any way. I suspect that they are all relatively similar. But I always like to ask just in case one has absolutely **** service or something.
Thanks for the link to a junk removal company in Atlanta. That's exactly what the poster in this two year old thread was looking for when he asked a question about garbage services for a house in another state.
Good work! Very helpful!
The last four years we've had private trash service. It's not that expensive and I prefer it to the service I've received from city/county government's in the past.
We have trash pick-up 2 days/week, recycling one day/week, and lawn waste 1 day/week.
Often, the competitors will pick up any yard waste, etc., so it doesn't even sit outside all week.
The only real drawback I have noted is that we have garbage trucks zipping through our neighborhood 5 days/week.
