I just caught a driver taking a piss on his truck right next to my window of my house I can't even believe what I just witnessed I went outside to see why he was letting his truck just sit there he didn't see me at first because he looked so relieved to to go to the bathroom when he saw me he looked startled I'm super upset so Dahm rude read more

I was very impressed today when I recycled my cans and bottles at this location for the very first time. The attendant was very nice and educated me on how to separate my items in order for him to process my cans and bottles for my CRV refund. This location only accepts CRV recycling which is good to know. Steps for recycling your CRV: -Separate glass bottles in green bins by color (green, clear, brown) -Separate plastice by color in round mesh bins (clear, white/opaque) -Separate cans into round mesh bins Attendant will weight/count items, print a receipt, then will process the receipt and give you cash back. read more

Edco sucks!!! One of the drivers didn't have a tarp down and broke my wind shield. Company says the rock probably cams up from the highway spun through the driver wheels and that's how my windshield broke. Fucken lies! read more

Just AWFUL. The Regional "manager" David refuses to do what he promises on the phone. Cannot even get my trash picked up after explicitly telling me they would get it done, multiple times. Just a JOKE read more

I've been an Edco customer for 21 years, and I've always received awesome customer service. They are easy to reach by phone, online interface is good, and I love that they provide the trash bins free of charge (I heard City charges). On trash day, if the driver see that you missed getting some trash in, they are accommodating while you run across the street or whatever. Thanks EDCO! read more

They're criminals. They continue to miss dates and charge you for them. All While obtusely deflecting the facts and simply charging for services unrendered. read more

This place is awful. One of their trucks knocked down my internet line 2 months ago, I'm still waiting for them to fix it. My internet provider won't help. And Even though EDCO knocked it down, they claim they can't do anything about it. And getting a hold of anyone over the phone is impossible but through email they'll respond, sometimes. Weird how that is. This place is a total joke. Not really sure why the city contracted them. read more

One star cause you can't give none. Could never get a straight answer from these people after nine separate conversations regarding what could go into a rented dumpster during a remodel project. The answers changed every time. We only put construction material into the dumpster yet were arbitrarily charged almost 2K dollars of additional fee's with no invoice provided. Strongly recommend avoid these guys and go with Diamond environmental services in San Marcos. Much more pleasant and professional to deal with. read more

This is hands-down the worst customer service price hiking obtrusive pathetic trash company I have ever had to deal with. In customer service it took me seven messages over a two month timeframe to get through to somebody not because they called me back but because I kept calling to have a charge erased off of my bill for services they never rendered. I was originally paying $70 for a 3 yard dumpster they removed my dumpster cut it in half literally welded it back together and gave it back to me as a 2 yard dumpster and then increase the price to $85 a month. If you have a dumpster they now charge you a state mandated recycling fee which they have set at $40 which by the way is seven dollars less than the residential service for the entire trash service. That's $40 a month in addition to the $80 or $85 a month for a single recycling bin. read more

The curbside service has been great. The office support is very weak. My account was placed on hold and they confiscated my trash can. Turns out EDCO was sending my bill to an unknown address......their error. The office clerk stated It was my problem and I was notified by email. When I stated I never received an email she challenged me and stated the dates the emails were sent. I asked her what email address the notices were sent to.....it was the wrong email address....their error. EDCO HAS THE WRONG MAILING ADDRESS AND EMAIL ADDRESS AND TAKE MY TRASH CAN!!! AND WILL NOT REPLACE MY TRASH CAN UNTIL THE NEXT SCHEDULED SERVICE DAY???? That's the customer service I get for their error. read more

This happen a couple of times. I know people have different experiences. Jen was great. She was patient and had help me. My trash can was always getting picked up. Now, since I requested for another trash can that they mark with my address on it. The old trash can that I already had and been living there for about 10years. They always missed our trash can bin. Everytime I called, they said oh it says on our system that it has been picked up! I said if it says that then why the H I still have full of trash in it!?!? Any who, short story, because I can go on... remember I've been staying there for about 10years with no MARK! "They said". ;so here is my video to let them know now it's mark bold big. Making sure it will never happen again!?!? Couldn't add videos. What I did was... I tagged the whole trash can with my address on it because they said it wasn't mark!?!?! read more

It is hard to imagine a worse company than waste management but here it is - EDCO. Pricing inconsistencies, unreliable service as they miss pickups, terrible unfriendly customer service with built in buffers for them to avoid accountability. It has only been 2 months and I am dreading the future with these local losers. Who cares if your crappy company is local? It does not translate into even average service. El Cajon needs to re-negotiate their stranglehold contract asap. avoid if at all possible! read more

Yes, I'm writing a review for out trash removal company, EDCO. I just got off the phone with Jen who assisted me with a question and some changes to our account. She was was so patient with me while I kept putting her on hold to consult my husband. I love EDCO's user-friendly website. EDCO's customer service is always excellent. I am grateful for what they have done for us over the years. An excellent company run VERY well. Must have great leadership there! Thanks, EDCO! read more

I hate trash. I hate smelly things. I hate throwing away stuff and wasting. I hate trash. But Edco, helps. They have amazing customer service. I live on a main road and often my trashcans have been vandalized. Edco never accuses me of doing anything wrong. If I missed getting the trash out (I have two male roommates at the time) then they have come back to pick up my trash. Edco is one company that you can call and talk to an actual person with real customer service skills. Respectful and caring. Support family owned local business. Thanks Edco. read more

I'm bummed out :( Karla was SO rude it was unacceptable. (Older Karla, new Karla was not the problem.) I called because I was still waiting for my recycle bin after waiting weeks for delivery. Instead of solving the problem she was RUDE and tried to "put me in my place." She needs to be re-trained on how to treat customers and solve issues. read more

The customer service agents are SO RUDE and talk to you like your a piece of the garbage they pick up! I had to call back to fix a mistake with our service and was put on hold for long periods of time. When I was asked who I spoke with and I said I was not sure I got a lecture about listening! Really? Thank you but no thank you! Will be moving our service to another company! read more

Edco is the worst waste management service I've ever had to deal with, and I worked in facilities for more than a decade. If you have an option, choose another company. They break your trash or recycling can, you must buy a new one. Their personnel will trespass in your yard and the company reps just say it's okay. Not even an apology. Stay out of the way of their drivers! They will run you over and not look back. They deleted the customer service from their customer service department. read more

Horrible customer service! Why work in customer service if you don't know how to provide great customer service? Work in the field & pick up trash. read more

EDCO small pickup truck driver could have killed or injured two drivers today Liscence plate 01055P1 Edco needs to be more careful about who to hire as their drivers. Today an EDCO driver in a tuck nearly killed or injured me and the car next to me. There were 2 cars waiting at a 2 lane intersection. An edco driver pulls up to the far right lane( presumably the right turn lane). When the lights turns greens the edco driver is still along side us for but for some reason he does not turn right but proceeds up with us and tries to push towards my lane. Out of instinct of not wanting to get hit, im slowing down and curving left because his car is pushing closer to me and because of that i had to swerve a bit to the left to avoid being hit. The car to the left also understood what was going on. The edco truck keeps going after he passes us while we are both honking at him trying to let him know that what he is doing is absolutely insane and dangerous and he should not be allowed on the road. I guess because he is using a edco rental small pick up truck and not his own car, he feels that hes okay to do whatever the hell he wants. So all in all, he pulled up to the intersection last and instead of waiting in line, pulls a dangerous maneuver to get ahead. So watch your back if truck 01055P1 is near you because you might not see him next to you and that could be the end of you read more

EDCO has wonderful staff. And they now work with schools accepting donations for their various causes :) read more

I come here to use their scales to weigh newly purchased commercial vehicles, and its always been a pleasant experience. They charge $13 to weigh a vehicle, and give you the certificate to take tot he dmv. Their employees always seem to be in a god mood, just make sure if you use the scales you enter gate 3 or 4. I prefer gate 3 because gate 4 has these metal speed bump things laid down in front. read more

Great place.to dump unwanted items! The traffic is a bit crazy. It does not smell as bad as I thought it would. I am glad that it is not too far of a drive for me. The people are nice for the most part, but they are there to direct you where you need to go. read more

If I could give this company ten stars, I would. Republic and Waste Management--take heed bow down to the undisputed king of trash pickup in San Diego county. Their service is unparalleled. Cheapest rates this side of East County and superior support to boot. When they promise something, they deliver. You can take their word to the bank. Republic and Waste Management--and I've had both--you have met your match. Get out of business or get out of the way! Your companies could definitely learn a thing or two from your rival. read more

None of us have a choice on what company picks up our trash. It is determined by your address. That being said, Edco does pick up my trash once a week with minimal problems. But try and schedule a bulky item pick up and they will drown you in rules. It's clearly meant to discourage you from scheduling it. Oh and I hope no one is renting dumpsters from these people for $480 minimum when you can contact a junk dealer to pick up for half the cost. read more

Highly incompetent staff use any available alternative service....drivers skip service on a regular basis and customer service could give a f read more

Awful but do we have a choice? No one was answering phone this morning and when someone finally did, Veronica, one couldn't get a word in to try to explain that we weren't receiving bills. She continued to yell and argue and talk over me. She shouldn't be talking to customers on the phone. She's rude and has zero customer service. I finally talked to someone named Caroline who is supposedly her supervisor but what will be done about it, likely nothing. Just another monopoly that we have to deal with. read more

Too bad I had to give them a star. Our yard waste has been sitting out for three days, all of our neighbors as well. Everyone has been trying to call for three days and wait time has been 45 minutes with them hanging up. Finally I got someone to answer to tell me I was lucky they picked up, yikes. Need to switch to waste master, hopefully their customer service is better. read more

Your guys have been great w our apartment complex, oilve tree apts. We hv trash n recycle pickup. Employees are so very helpful read more

Trashy service. Pun intended. Every week I come home and the neighborhood street has trash/recycle bins thrown about, knocked over, in the middle of the street, etc. There's bits of recycling and trash all over the place too. I couldn't understand how this was happening, but I saw it today. The trash guy doesn't even get out of the truck. The truck has a device to pick-up and dump the bins for him without getting out. When the trash and recycling spills out as the truck abrasively scoops up the bins and dumps them, the driver doesn't care one bit because that would require him to get out of the truck. I didn't realize I had standards for trash pick-up, but this company takes it to a whole new low. I called today to give them feedback that they are making the neighborhoods look trashy...literally due to all the trash and bins scattered on the street. But they were 100% content with the poor quality of their service and defended the drivers because "the drivers are responsible if the truck gets stolen so they aren't allowed to get out." Um, ok, are there a lot of trash truck thieves nowadays?! Be realistic. Does your company have no pride in the quality of their work?? It's trash pick-up for pete's sake. It's not that hard. Other companies have figured out the incredibly complex concept of "trash pick-up." There's so many easy fixes to Edco's poor pick-up service. Get out of the truck, get a second worker that can get out of the truck, if the truck's pick-up device dumps trash on the street maybe you should look into a different truck design, etc. Stop being so lazy and money hungry that you can't possibly afford the extra time it would take to actually "pick-up" the trash rather than dumping it on my driveway and calling it a day. I'm switching companies, and I hope my neighbors do the same. read more

Very poor service. I ordered a 25 yard dumpster for my construction project and was promised a dumpster with 6' high sides. They were four hours late and delivered a dumpster with 4' high sides. They offered to exchange it if it was empty but my guys had already put 2 hrs worth of fill in it. I asked for a discount and they told me to pound sand. They won't be getting my business again. read more

We live in imperial beach, and today was the free junk/bulk item removal. We loaded up our pick up truck and took it to the location listed. It was very quick and the edco employees were very helpful. Edco also provides our weekly trash pick up and we've never had any issues. read more

We love EDCO & love our trash men. We have had service for years and always get quality service. We live in rancho san diego and have rented a tbin for a garage clean up. The price was decently priced at $175 and it included 10 days of rent and 800 pounds of debris. Our driver for the tbin got the dumpster there mid day and we had plenty of time to fill it within the 10 days that we had it. I think we will order it again for our wedding next year. It was so convenient to get rid of all the trash at the same time instead of waiting for the weekly trash service. I also wanted to mention the large item removal that we can schedule every 3 months is so very convenient. It was the perfect way to get rid of our old bed room furniture. WE LOVE EDCO!!!! THANK YOU TRASH MEN!! read more

This place needs extra training on their customer service!!!! When they bought out Daily, things went downhill. I am told that they no longer do Christmas tree removal (as they did last year), had 2 reps with wrong information. So much for helping out our local businesses. I will be looking for a new waste management. read more

We are about to be dirt poor (due to a lay off) so we called edco to see if they could possibly pick up once a month. Understandably, the answer was no, but it was worth a shot. So, we cancelled service. We were paid up through September 30th. Our trash was emptied by the trash trucks but no one wanted to pick up the trash cans. My mom called every other day to 'remind' them about their cans, but of course we weren't paying customers anymore so why would they care. The 'customer service' people were rude and they sounded bored and annoyed. They repeatedly made promises and subsequently told lies when they said someone would be out to pick them up. October 9th comes around and I had had enough. I asked to speak to a manager and let her know just how incompetent her company was (like she isn't fully aware of that fact) and she said they would be picked up on the 10th. Finally!! I find it so sad that so many people who are currently employed aren't more appreciative. I would be so grateful to have a job and I would have made it my mission to get someone out to pick up the cans as soon as the issue came to my attention. read more

Worst disposal service I have ever had. Completely unreliable. Pick up was rescheduled by one day because of the Xmas Holiday - it is now Wednesday a no one has yet to show up. Worst, this is not the first time this company's service has been proven to be inadequate. The customer and its supervisor act as if you are bothering them when you call in for information or to find out what is happening. Inappropriate responses. If I were running this company I would fire the entire staff and management and start over from scratch. The current organization does not have the wherewithal to provide acceptable service. Steer clear of this company if you can. read more

I marked a gray EDCO can "Recycling" and left it out on trash day for two weeks. When no one picked up either trash or recycling for that can, I called to ask them for a new recycling can and to ask the driver to come back to pick up my recycling. The woman gave me a haughty reply that they only used cans that were the proper color. Then she hung up on me! read more

EDCO has higher fees than WM and Daily, but there are no cancellation fees like those other companies have. I considered switching companies, but did not like the idea of signing a contract so I'm sticking with EDCO. They have provided satisfactory service (no problems at all) for the past several years. When I cancelled last week, they immediately refunded my money for the service they hadn't provided yet. After discovering the contracts and fees of the other 2 companies, I've decided to stick with EDCO. read more

Very poor service!!! Not by the guys who pick up our trash, but management. They are not allowed to get out of their trucks to pick up an extra bag or if you leave a big box (broken down) on top of the recycle and it falls off before it gets into the trash truck. Now comes the good business of this: because we live in condos and the guys were not allowed out of their trucks they could not get the trash containers to stay out of the carports for people coming home from work, so now the guys have to take their truck and park it out of the condos and walk back in to straighten the trash cans as we had them for them. Would it not be more cost effective to let the guys get out and straighten as they go. Edco, you are wasting your own money!!!! read more

I made a mistake and my payment did not go through. Well after that with out any notice or a warning. They came and took ALL my cans. I even had paid my bill that same day. They have horrible customer service as well. I tried to get them back the same day they took them and i am told I will have to wait a whole week to get my cans back. So I have no way of taking my trash out now. Well actually I do WASTE MANAGEMENT will be my new service. Good luck edco. read more

Cindy home is unprofessional and disrespectful. I have been living in a home since January and just finally received my bill addressed to lemon grove but they want to charge me the spring valley rate. I have had issues with edco since day one and the attitude is very much unappreciated. I would love to be with another company as this impression has left me with a bad taste of their service. read more
