You’re dealing with cardboard piling up, old appliances taking space, and that growing stack of recyclables you keep meaning to handle. The dual-stream recycling requirements in Brookhaven mean paper and cardboard get collected separately from plastic and metal – and getting it wrong means it doesn’t get picked up at all.
When you work with local recycling services that actually understand Medford’s requirements, those problems disappear. Your space gets cleared, materials get recycled properly, and you don’t waste time figuring out what goes where or when pickup happens.
The result? Clean spaces, proper disposal, and the peace of mind that comes from working with people who’ve been handling Suffolk County recycling for over two decades.
We’ve been handling recycling and waste management in Medford since 2000. We’re the family-owned company your neighbors call when they need reliable container service that actually shows up on time.
Our team knows Suffolk County’s recycling requirements, from Brookhaven’s dual-stream system to proper cardboard preparation. We’re fully licensed and insured, which matters when you’re trusting someone with your property and waste management needs.
Being local means we understand what Medford residents deal with – from seasonal cleanouts to ongoing commercial recycling needs. It also means when you call, you’re talking to people who live and work right here in Suffolk County.
Getting your recycling handled properly starts with a quick conversation about what you need. We’ll recommend the right container size – whether that’s a 20-yard dumpster for a home cleanout or regular pickup service for ongoing business needs.
We deliver your container when promised and pick it up on schedule. No waiting around wondering if we’ll show up. Our trucks are equipped to handle everything from flattened cardboard (which saves space and meets local requirements) to mixed recyclables that need proper sorting.
After pickup, materials go to appropriate recycling facilities throughout Suffolk County. Cardboard gets processed at paper mills, metals get sorted and recycled, and everything gets handled according to local regulations. You get confirmation the job’s done right, and your space is ready for whatever comes next.

Our recycling services include container delivery, pickup, and proper disposal of cardboard, paper, metals, and other recyclable materials. We handle both residential cleanouts and ongoing commercial recycling programs for Medford businesses.
For Brookhaven residents, we understand the dual-stream requirements – paper and cardboard collected separately from plastic and metal containers. This local knowledge prevents the frustration of improperly sorted materials getting rejected at pickup.
Suffolk County has some of the most advanced recycling infrastructure in the region, with facilities processing over 1,500 tons of materials daily. We work with these established networks to ensure your recyclables actually get recycled, not just collected and dumped elsewhere. Our service includes proper preparation guidance, reliable scheduling, and documentation for businesses that need recycling compliance records.
We handle cardboard (flattened for efficiency), paper products, metal containers, plastic bottles, and construction debris that can be recycled. For Brookhaven’s dual-stream system, we separate paper and cardboard from plastic and metal containers as required.
What we can’t take includes hazardous materials, paint, chemicals, and materials that require special handling. If you’re unsure about specific items, we’ll walk you through what works and what doesn’t during scheduling. This prevents pickup delays and ensures everything gets processed correctly at Suffolk County recycling facilities.
Most container deliveries happen within 24-48 hours of your call, often same-day for standard requests. We’ve been serving Medford for over 20 years, so we know the area and can route efficiently.
Pickup timing depends on your needs – some customers want immediate pickup when full, others prefer scheduled weekly or monthly service. We work around your timeline, not the other way around. During busy seasons like spring cleaning, booking a day ahead ensures you get your preferred time slot.
Yes, we handle commercial recycling for offices, retail locations, restaurants, and contractors throughout Suffolk County. Business recycling often requires consistent scheduling and compliance documentation, which we provide.
Commercial clients appreciate our flexible container sizes and pickup schedules. Whether you need weekly cardboard pickup for a retail store or monthly cleanouts for office paper, we customize service to match your waste stream and budget. We also provide recycling compliance reports for businesses that need documentation for environmental programs.
Brookhaven follows a dual-stream recycling system where paper and cardboard get collected separately from plastic and metal containers. Materials must be placed loose in approved containers – no bags allowed.
Cardboard should be flattened before placement to maximize container space and meet local requirements. Collection happens on alternating Wednesdays according to the municipal calendar. Getting the separation wrong means materials don’t get picked up, which is why working with local services that understand these requirements saves time and frustration.
Pricing depends on container size, rental duration, and pickup frequency. A 20-yard container for a home cleanout costs differently than ongoing weekly service for a business. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees.
Most residential customers find our rates competitive with other Suffolk County services, but with better reliability and local knowledge. Commercial pricing often saves money compared to traditional waste management when you factor in proper recycling credits and reduced disposal fees. We’ll give you exact pricing based on your specific needs during the initial conversation.
Yes, we work with Suffolk County facilities that specialize in construction and demolition debris recycling. Materials like concrete, wood, metal, and drywall can often be recycled rather than landfilled.
Construction recycling requires proper sorting and sometimes special handling, which we coordinate based on your project type. Some materials like treated lumber or mixed debris require different processing, so we evaluate each job individually. This approach often reduces disposal costs while meeting environmental requirements for commercial projects and LEED certification needs.
