Incompetent, rude, unhelpful. You can't count on your trash always being picked up, depends on how…read morethe guy feels that day. So I called them to ask why my trash was not picked up. Madison said they didn't know, they'd call me back. They never did. I had to call them the following week and then Madison told me they didn't know what happened and also didn't know why she never called me back. When pressed, Madison started making up lies about a possible weather issue - yeah, that's why they skipped my house (no hill or access issues) and a few others in my neighborhood but managed to collect trash from everyone else. She then refused to send someone to pick up the trash they missed. I had to ask her not to charge me for the service I didn't receive - they were going to still bill me for it! Turns out when she promised to not bill me for the service I didn't receive, she was lying (see last paragraph). Madison then refused to put me through to a supervisor but would relay a message and admitted she wasn't sure if they'd call me back (like she never did). When I asked who was above her supervisors Eric and Andrew, she said it is a company called Waste Connections but refused to give me their contact number, told me to look it up online. After much protesting, she finally looked up the number for me - and gave me a number that directs right back to her office, not even Waste Connections, as she stated. Convenient. Spoke with the "boss" Andrew the next day. He just kept telling me how they are not required to refund me if they didn't pick up. Repeatedly told me they are allowed to bill you even if they don't provide the service. This company is criminal and its employees are unhelpful and rude. Unfortunately if you live on this god forsaken Island, you don't have any choices and are stuck working with losers like this. Everyone here should be unemployed.

At Island Disposal, you're greeted by rude, maskless, sneering Karens with no Covid protocol…read morewhatsoever. Asking a question about what gets put where results in eye-rolling, followed by a terse explanation and a sigh. They advertise that they recycle electronics. They do not, actually, do that, and told us to just throw our broken 50" flatscreen and laptop "in the trash", even though both contain environmental contaminants. Feckless, dangerously stupid, ignorant of the health of their community and the environment, this is exactly how recycling is done WRONG. Stay away from these people. They have no interest in your safety or the environment. They are the very definition of what it is to be a bad neighbor. Nope nope nope nope.

I came to Island County ("the dump") to get rid of a carpet Grandma had when spending a few days…read morewith her. The carpet was large and we were charged a flat rate. We were able to back the car up to the dumpster area and get close enough that there was not too much wrestling to get the carpet into the dumpster. She had some other items she was thinking of getting rid of, such as paint, and when we asked about disposal we learned that oil-based and water-based paints required different disposal procedures. Learned something new on our visit. We went in the morning soon after it opened for the day and it was not too busy, the worker at the entrance where we paid the flat fee was friendly, full of insight, and eager to share what she knew to help out.

It was my first time going to a dump around in this area and they're not that easy to find but I came across this one and it is open seven days a week that accepts virtually anything before disposal.

I had a bunch of stuff from the house several toilets broken mirrors frames and a bunch of other stuff several hundred pounds ended up costing me 30 bucks.

I do not regularly use the services of places such as this as I rely mainly on garbage pickup. But…read moreon the occasion I have needed to go and dispose of items myself that I know Waste Management won't pick up. That being said, this was my first time using the Snohomish County Solid Waste Transfer Center and it was a good experience. I know, going to the "dump" being a good experience sound odd, but good customer service, politeness and efficiency really does make the difference whether at a restaurant, retail store, coffee shop, or the "dump". In this case, every person I encountered that worked there was polite, courteous and helpful, meaning we were acknowledged, greeted, directed and thanked. They may have hated their job or were having a bad day, but I wouldn't have known. Good signage and direction made the experience quick and efficient with little to no delay so we were in and out Ricky-Tick. But in that short time the customer service did not go unnoticed. From the the gal in the booth/gate to the people on the dump site directing traffic. Honestly some restaurants and stores I've been to could take a lesson about customer service from them, no joke. As for the price 360 lbs. or less = $20, includes tax (minimum fee) Over 360 lbs. = $105 per ton, plus tax I think pretty reasonable, but the gal at the booth did inform us as we were checking out that prices would be going up to $30 for the minimum fee. Still not to bad I think.
