You know that pile of cardboard boxes in your garage? The construction debris from your kitchen remodel? The office cleanout that’s been sitting there for weeks?
Gone. All of it.
With proper container service, you get your space back without the headache of figuring out what goes where or making multiple trips to recycling centers. We handle the sorting, the hauling, and the proper disposal so your project moves forward and your property stays clean.
No more wondering if you’re doing it right. No more overflowing bins or missed pickup days disrupting your schedule.
We’ve been handling recycling and waste management in Riverhead since 2000. We’re the local company that understands how Suffolk County recycling actually works.
While the Town of Riverhead handles residential pickup on Wednesdays, they don’t serve commercial properties, condos, or apartments. That’s where we come in. We fill the gap with reliable container service that works around your schedule, not the other way around.
Family-owned, fully licensed, and insured. We’ve built our reputation on showing up when we say we will and handling your recyclables responsibly.
First, we talk about your project and help you choose the right container size. No guesswork – we’ve done this thousands of times and know exactly what works for kitchen remodels, office cleanouts, or construction projects.
Next, we deliver your container exactly where and when you need it. You fill it at your own pace while we handle the scheduling and logistics.
When you’re ready, we pick everything up and transport it to the appropriate recycling facilities. Cardboard goes to paper recycling, metals get processed properly, and construction debris gets sorted according to local regulations. You don’t have to think about any of it.

Cardboard and paper products are our specialty, but we handle much more. Construction debris, office furniture, appliances, and mixed recyclables all get processed through the right channels.
In Riverhead, recycling regulations are specific. Suffolk County requires proper separation and processing, and different materials need different handling. We know which facilities accept what materials and have the relationships to ensure everything gets processed correctly.
For commercial properties especially, this matters. You can’t just throw everything in the municipal bin and hope for the best. Professional recycling service ensures compliance with local regulations while keeping your project moving forward.
We handle cardboard, paper products, construction debris, metals, and most commercial waste materials. The key is proper sorting and processing through approved Suffolk County facilities.
Cardboard is our most common request – moving boxes, packaging materials, and shipping containers from businesses. We also process mixed office paper, construction materials like drywall and lumber, and metal components from renovation projects.
What we can’t take includes hazardous materials like paint, chemicals, or medical waste. These require specialized handling through Suffolk County’s STOP program or other certified facilities.
Container size depends on your specific project, but we help you get it right. A 10-yard container works for most home cleanouts or small renovations. Larger construction projects typically need 20 or 30-yard containers.
Here’s what we consider: the type of materials, the timeline of your project, and your available space for container placement. Cardboard and paper compress significantly, so you can fit more than you might expect.
We’d rather have you start with the right size than deal with overage fees or multiple containers. That’s why we ask detailed questions upfront – it saves you money and hassle.
Yes, commercial recycling is a big part of our business. Since the Town of Riverhead doesn’t serve commercial properties, businesses rely on private companies like us for regular recycling service.
We work with restaurants, retail stores, office buildings, and industrial facilities throughout Suffolk County. Each business has different needs – some need weekly cardboard pickup, others require larger containers for construction or renovation projects.
Our commercial clients appreciate the reliability and proper documentation. We provide service records and recycling certificates when needed for environmental compliance or reporting requirements.
Municipal pickup in Riverhead happens every Wednesday and alternates between different material types. It’s designed for residential properties and has specific rules about what can be included.
Our service is more flexible and comprehensive. We handle larger volumes, mixed materials, and work around your schedule instead of the town’s calendar. Plus, we serve properties that municipal service doesn’t cover.
The biggest difference is reliability and capacity. If you miss the Wednesday pickup or have more than fits in your bins, you’re stuck waiting. With container service, you control the timeline and volume.
Most deliveries happen within 24-48 hours of your call, depending on container availability and your location in Riverhead. For urgent projects, we often accommodate same-day delivery.
We keep containers staged throughout Suffolk County, so we’re not starting from scratch each time. Emergency cleanouts or time-sensitive construction projects get priority scheduling.
The key is calling as soon as you know you’ll need service. Last-minute requests are harder to accommodate, especially during busy construction seasons or after storms when everyone needs containers.
Everything goes to appropriate processing facilities throughout Suffolk County. Cardboard and paper go to paper recycling plants, metals get processed at scrap facilities, and construction materials go to specialized recycling centers.
We maintain relationships with multiple facilities to ensure proper processing and competitive disposal costs. This isn’t a “dump everything at the landfill” operation – we actually recycle what can be recycled.
You can request documentation of where your materials went if needed for environmental reporting or compliance purposes. Many of our commercial clients need this for their own sustainability tracking.
