What Services We Offer

We bill every two months, in arrears, via mail or e-mail.

Our trash routes are geographically specific. Days vary according to neighborhood. Due to holidays, schedules will change on occasion. Notification will always be given in advance. Please contact us to determine your trash day.

Recycling consists of two categories: Paper and Commingle (glass, plastic, metal, cartons). Paper recycling involves newspapers, junk mail, catalogs, magazines, etc. Commingle includes bottles, cans, cartons, and numbered plastics. Please see our recycling page for more detailed information.

The following items should not be placed in the recycle bin: clothes hangers (bring them back to the dry cleaner), plastic bags of any kind (reuse them or bring them back to the store), Styrofoam, ceramic wares, broken glass of any kind, plate glass, mirrors, aerosol cans, soiled paper, light bulbs. Please call for further discussion.

Do you have an old sofa or T.V. that needs to be removed? Or perhaps an entire house, garage, or an office that needs to be cleaned out? We can help! From as little as one or two items to an entire estate clean out, our professional team can handle whatever it is you need thrown away.

We remove furniture, appliances, computers, TVs, mattresses/box springs, yard waste, construction debris, wall-to-wall carpeting, and more!

Dumpster Service

We offer roll-off container rentals for both residential and commercial projects. These “driveway dumpsters” are perfect for attic and basement cleanouts, construction projects, and large quantities of yard waste. Please contact us at 781-444-8710 or info@jttrash.com to set up delivery of your container.

Our 15 cubic yard dumpsters (approximately 8 x 12 x 5.5′) fit easily into most driveways. A door in the rear of the dumpster allows you to walk in large or heavy items. The flat-rate dumpster fee includes drop off and pick up to and from your location (24 hours’ notice is required), a two ton weight allowance, and a two week rental period. After the two week period, a daily rental fee will apply. After disposal of waste, any excess of 2 tons will be added to the flat rate fee. All debris must be “water level” in the dumpster. Any debris that extends or protrudes over the container’s walls is considered extra and will be removed at the customer’s expense. For environmental reasons, the following items cannot be placed in a dumpster and should be placed beside the dumpster. Please note that additional dump surcharges will apply.

GENERAL INFORMATION

* Please have your trash and recycling ready to go by 7:00 a.m. on your designated pick-up day. No need to bring it to the curb; we just need to get our truck within 10 feet of your trash with no obstruction.

* All non-recyclable trash must be in some type of trash bag and tied. When loading your trash bags, please keep in mind that bags need to be hoisted overhead into our trucks.

* Recycling must be sorted into two categories – Paper and Commingle – and should be placed in standard recycle bins. Please see our Recycle Page for more information.

* Contact us if you have extra trash or more than a bag or two of yard waste. We ask for one week’s notice for extra trash. Extra trash/yard waste charges are based on the specific dimensions of what we are disposing for you.

* Contact us in advance if you’re going to be away and we’ll credit your account for that time.
