Spring Cleaning this year came a bit early, and unplanned. A water leak forced me to deal with 40…read moreyears of accumulated "stuff" in a storage room in my garage.... What do you do with starter fluid, old paints and stains, all sorts of cans of this and that? EDCO Recycling in Signal Hill is what you do! Yesterday, I went, with the back of my SUV filled with assorted fluids and headed for EDCO. When I arrived at 10:00am, the line was already blocks long, extending around the corner of Spring Street , almost to Atlantic Avenue! Yikes! There are lots of street attendants directing folks. The one I spoke with assured me that the line moves quickly. He was right! This is a very efficiently run process, only available two Saturdays each month (check their website). When you pull into the disposal area, several men open your back hatch and quickly remove all of the items that you need to safely dispose of. And then, you are on your way...with the wonderful feeling of accomplishment that cleaning out AND properly disposing potentially dangerous items brings! Hint: Find out what time they are opening (usually 8 or 9am) and get there early.

Dealing with water damage and mold is something that no one wants to go through, but I can't…read moreimagine having gone through it with anyone other than Hansel. He and his partner do all of the work themselves, so you know exactly who you're dealing with from start to finish. He took care of my home as if it was his own, and was responsive, transparent and communicative throughout the entire process. Having never gone through this before, it was important to me to have someone who I felt like I could trust and would give the information to me straight, and I found that in Hansel. Even when it became a larger project with more days than anticipated, they added on a 12 hour Saturday work day and put in all of the time it took to resolve the issue in my home. His prices were competitive, and he sent us a certificate of completion at the end.

If you're anything like me, you may have a tower or two sitting around collecting dust…read more You swear you'll do something with it, you set a time frame, then whoops. I googled this spot because I finally got tired and Marie-Kondo'd my place. You have to dispose of E-waste correctly vs just chucking it into the regular trash. I removed hard drives then took two towers, a monitor, a keyboard, and a smart watch here. Finding the spot wasn't difficult (although traffic may be weird on Anaheim with specific turns and trucks stacked up). There's a visible sign that points out their driveway of sorts to pull into. Do not pull all the way in unless you're capable of backing straight out/aren't concerned with them being busy. =p I walked in, told the guys there I had some stuff to drop off and they followed me out with a clipboard. They unloaded the towers and everything for me. They had me sign for the monitor (I believe due to components within it?) and the entire process was done in 5 minutes max. It was beyond easy.

I got the testing done, it came back positive for asbestos. I panicked. I called Pacific Environmental for an estimate on the job. Armando and Arturo came out to assess the job and provide with me with a quote. To my surprise, the price was only slightly higher than the regular remediation company. I was pleasantly surprised by the affordability. Additionally, they promised me the job would be completed in 1 day! WOW! This would be best case scenario. The office staff was also very kind and helpful with prompt estimate and response time. Today was the day of the job, I was very anxious and worried due to the fact that my parent's house is very old. The job supervisor, two workers and Arturo came out to ensure that everything would be okay! They did a superior job, kept everything clean, taped off all areas and did a great job with containment! I am so grateful to the PEAS team, now I can breathe easy and I am so relieved! I highly recommend this company for any abatement project. Great price, great customer service and great quality work! They listened to everything I asked for and delivered above and beyond! Thank you to the entire PEAS team!

As a contractor, I talk to a lot of companies, and it's rare to find someone who combines real…read moreexpertise with total honesty and a genuinely helpful attitude. Dino at Pacific Environment Abatement is exactly that. We're looking at buying a home in Seal Beach (Orange County) with popcorn ceilings, and I wanted to understand the reality of asbestos testing and what the asbestos abatement process would look like if it came back positive. I called Dino expecting a quick, generic pitch. Instead, he took the time to walk me through each step like a professional consultant--what the risks are, what's worth worrying about (and what isn't), the tradeoffs between different approaches, and how to think about the situation before making a decision. What really stood out was how transparent he was. No upsell, no scare tactics, no "you must do this immediately" pressure. Just clear explanations, practical guidance, and the kind of honesty you only get from someone who actually knows the work and genuinely cares about doing right by the customer. His pricing also sounded very fair and reasonable. With just one phone call, Dino saved me time and gave me a great understanding of the abatement process. If we end up needing asbestos testing or asbestos abatement, Dino and Pacific Environment Abatement will be the first and only call. Also worth mentioning: his office staff was incredibly kind and helpful too.
