Strict on what they receive ~ cardboard needs to be plastic & styrofoam free, broken down and completely dry. If you meet that criteria, then unload for free! Plastic needs to be very very specific for them to receive. It can get dirty & muddy especially on a rainy day, so appropriately be prepared. A little out of the way, but we appreciate that they are "conscious" in making recycling work.

There are a lot of fun items, and you never know what they will had. That said, it is chaos!! Not just filled with grabby people, but the items themselves are just everywhere. It reminds me of what I'd expect cleaning out a grandparent's garage would look like. The employees seem frustrated when interacting with customers - maybe because it was the end of the day, or maybe it's just a personal decision? My needs were simple, but most remained unmet. I did find a few things I didn't know I was missing!

I live at MonteVista in Beaverton and we've had ZipEco at our complex for almost a month now and I…read morehave been so pleased with the service. I hated taking my recycling and trash down when it gets full because there is only one trash area in my complex and it was a major wreck! Now that ZipEco is offered to us I love "trash day". The person working our route is always here right at 7pm so I can bring in the receptacle before I head to sleep for the night. The instructions for use are well explained and easy to do, and nightly service makes it easy to stay on top of your housework. Before my roommates and I would stuff the trash so full we could barely close it because none of us wanted to take the trash down the stairs and then fight for space in the full dumpster. My neighbors never flattened their cardboard boxes down so the recycling was a nightmare every week. Now with the rules ZipEco has in place they have to flatten the boxes and recycle correctly if they want it to be taken! ZipEco was the best idea my management has ever had, I appreciate this company so much, they make the worst part of housework way easier for me.

Everything was very reasonable and prompt with a strong sense of wanting to "get things right" for, me, the customer. We were able to come up with a solution and get the rest of the work taken care of so that the job was fully done. The team, once again was incredibly professional and handled things in a way that demonstrates that they really take pride in their business and brand. How they handled a misaligned situation speaks volumes about the overall integrity and fairness of their business. I would recommend Slam Dunk Junk for work in the future.

Recycling Adventure:…read more I recently had to clean out my garage and a couple of rooms inside our house in order to prepare to host some visitors from overseas for a couple of weeks this summer. I'd accumulated 20-years of junk! It looked like a job for Extreme Make Over - Home Edition, but without the army of contractors or Sears and Ty Pennington to help. It almost looked like an episode of Oprah about folks who hoard everything! I had all the usual junk that would typically be recyclable curbside, but I had both too much of it for a single curbside load, as well as plenty of 'stuff' that wasn't on the curbside list of recyclables (like block Styrofoam packaging, etc). Of course, some of the stuff I wanted to jettison was perfectly reusable and I didn't want it to simply get tossed (working, but old computer and home electronics stuff, etc). And while some of the stuff qualified as Salvation Army and Goodwill candidates, some didn't. I discovered Portland's Metro Recycling Web-Site and Hot-line and they supplied me with a list of local resources for all the various types of junk that I wanted to recycle, including the block Styrofoam packing material. Besides their hot-line phone number, their web-site has a nifty search feature that taps into their huge database of local recyclers for everything from soup-to-nuts (so-to-speak). http://www.oregonmetro.gov/index.cfm/go/by.web/id=1383 It is a handy service that just works!
