Frequently Asked Questions

Do you provide free estimates?

Yes, ABC will provide you with a free, no-obligation estimate for trash bin cleaning services, and most times, this estimate can be given over the phone or here on the ABC site.

Your estimate will be based on a number of factors, including how many trash bins you need cleaned and the frequency of service you’d prefer. When you decide when and how often to have the work done, we can schedule your first service call.

Do I need to be home when you clean my trash cans?

We can absolutely clean your trash bins while you’re away from home. However, you’ll need to ensure we have access to the bins (we prefer them brought to edge of street). In prearranged instances, we can enter the yard or storage area for bins, but pets and animals will need to be inside while we access and clean the bins.

Are your trash can cleaning products friendly for the environment?

We’re proud of our eco-friendly cleaning solutions and wouldn’t use anything at your home that we wouldn’t use at our own. A service specialist is always happy to speak with you in detail about any product being used if you have specific concerns.

How often should I clean my trash cans?

This varies and is based on personal preference. People who store their bins in the garage and have to walk by them daily usually have them cleaned more often. We all know in Texas, trash bins tend to smell worse when it’s really hot outside. We offer flexibility to clean your bins when you want them cleaned. Monthly, bi-monthly and quarterly service plans are available, along with a one-time cleaning option.

My garbage and recycling bins are less than a year old. Do they really need to be cleaned?

Think about it this way: most of us clean our bathrooms, our kitchen, our clothes, and even our vehicles regularly. Your trash and recycling bins are no different. Bacteria start to grow in your trash bins from the very first use. Bacteria emit foul-smelling gaseous molecules that cause awful odors. It takes very little time for a lot of bacteria to start growing in that small space. You have to eliminate bacteria if you want your bins to smell better. Our high pressure, high temperature system does just that. A regular cleaning keeps new trash bins from ever getting to the point that you can’t stand to open the lid.

Can't I just clean my trash bins myself?

You certainly can, but cleaning trash bins is dirty work. Home owners equipped with a garden hose and detergent can’t always get their bins properly cleaned and sanitized; and if you use harsh chemicals, you could harm yourself, your pets and the environment. We use professional-grade equipment to clean, disinfect and deodorize your bins efficiently and save you the risk and hassle of doing the work yourself.

“The guys did a fantastic job!! My yard was completely overgrown with ragweed and morning glory taking over! They left the yard looking amazing, sprayed the weeds to help them stay away and even touched up a few spots I saw last minute! My bushes in front look so happy! Thanks y’all, it looks incredible!!”
