You know that pile of cardboard in your garage. The old appliances taking up space. The construction debris you’ve been meaning to deal with for months.
Here’s what happens when you call us: it all disappears. Not into some mystery truck, but to actual recycling facilities where your materials get processed properly. You get your space back, your project moves forward, and you know you did the right thing for Suffolk County.
We’ve been handling recycling in Asharoken for over 20 years. We know which materials go where, when facilities are open, and how to sort everything so it actually gets recycled instead of rejected for contamination.
Millennium Container Service Inc. has been part of the Asharoken community for more than two decades. We’re the family-owned company that shows up when we say we will, handles your materials like they matter, and treats your property with respect.
You’ll talk to people who actually know the recycling business, not a call center. Our drivers know the neighborhoods, understand Suffolk County’s recycling requirements, and have the experience to handle jobs efficiently.
When you choose local, you get service that reflects our commitment to keeping Long Island clean for the next generation.
First, you call us at 516-826-5544 or reach out online. We discuss what you need removed, when you need it done, and any access considerations for your property.
Next, we deliver the right size container to your location. Our containers are clean, properly sized for your project, and placed carefully to protect your driveway.
You fill it up with your recyclable materials. Cardboard, paper, metals, appliances – whatever qualifies for recycling goes in. If you’re not sure about something, just ask.
Finally, we pick it up on schedule and transport everything to the appropriate recycling facilities. You get confirmation that your materials were processed properly, not just dumped somewhere.

Your recycling service covers all the standard materials Suffolk County accepts: cardboard, mixed paper, glass containers, plastic bottles, and metal cans. We also handle larger items like appliances and scrap metal that require special processing.
For businesses in Asharoken, we provide regular pickup schedules that work with your operations. Restaurants, retail stores, offices, and industrial facilities all generate different types of recyclable waste, and we adjust our service accordingly.
Property managers and contractors appreciate our flexibility with timing and container sizes. Whether you’re dealing with a one-time cleanout or ongoing waste management, we have containers ranging from small residential sizes to large commercial units that handle significant volumes.
You can recycle cardboard, mixed paper, newspapers, magazines, glass jars and bottles, plastic containers with recycling codes 1-5 and 7, metal food cans, and aluminum beverage cans. We also accept larger items like appliances, scrap metal, and electronics that require special handling.
What we can’t take: hazardous materials, automotive fluids, paint, batteries, or medical waste. These need special disposal through Suffolk County’s hazardous waste programs. If you’re unsure about something, call us before putting it in the container.
Pricing depends on container size, pickup frequency, and the type of materials you’re recycling. For most residential customers, our rates are competitive with other Suffolk County services, but you get better reliability and local accountability.
Commercial recycling often saves money compared to regular waste disposal because recyclable materials have value. We’ll evaluate your current waste costs and show you potential savings. Many businesses find that proper recycling actually reduces their overall disposal expenses.
We typically deliver containers within 24-48 hours of your call, sometimes same-day depending on our schedule and your location. For planned projects, we recommend calling a few days ahead to guarantee your preferred delivery date.
Emergency situations get priority. If you’re dealing with a water damage cleanup or need immediate debris removal, we’ll work with you to get a container delivered as quickly as possible. Our local presence in Suffolk County means we can respond faster than larger regional companies.
Everything goes to legitimate recycling facilities, not landfills. We work with certified processors throughout Suffolk County and provide documentation showing where your materials were delivered. Cardboard goes to paper mills, metals to scrap processors, and electronics to certified e-waste facilities.
This isn’t just good for the environment – it’s also required by law. Suffolk County has specific regulations about material separation and disposal. We maintain all the necessary permits and relationships with approved facilities to ensure compliance.
We’ll work with you to solve the problem without surprise charges. If you’ve exceeded the weight limit, we can often split the load between two trips or help you remove some materials to get within limits. Communication is key – call us before the pickup if you think there might be an issue.
For future projects, we’ll help you choose the right container size upfront. Most people underestimate how much space debris takes up, especially cardboard and paper products. We’d rather deliver a slightly larger container than deal with overage issues later.
Absolutely. We serve homeowners dealing with cleanouts, renovations, and regular recycling, plus businesses needing ongoing waste management. Our residential service focuses on convenience and proper material handling, while commercial clients get customized pickup schedules and volume-based pricing.
Many of our commercial customers are restaurants, retail stores, and small manufacturers in the Asharoken area. We understand that business recycling needs are different from residential – you need reliable service that doesn’t disrupt operations, and you need competitive pricing that makes sense for your budget.
