Update: The trash bins have finally been removed! It took about two months total. I wish I could…read moresay they finally responded and apologized, had an emergency or whatever situation that prevented it from happening the first many times we reached out. Unfortunately no, I had to call yet again, left a voicemail informing them that my next call would be to the Better Business Bureau, with the disclaimer that I really didn't want to have to take that step on a locally owned, family business that many customers have been very happy with for so many years, and then a follow up email along the same lines. It would have been nice to hear something from someone, a return call letting us know that they were now coming to get them, or a return email saying as much. But no, none of that, just that the bins are now gone. So I guess that's that, no steps taken that would improve my original rating, but the bare minimum met after two months and a lot of hassle. Original Review: When we purchased and moved into our new house, there were four L&W trash bins outside that the previous owner apparently utilized, as they are quite full. We spoke to the previous owner to remind them since it was evidently an oversight during their moving out process. They said they would speak to the family member that I guess works for this company and made the arrangements to get four at one time, and have them taken away. That did not happen. So we called ourselves, let them know, it's not a big deal, but please come get them now. They said they do not service our street. We said we understand that, but the fact remains, that someone made arrangements to have so many trash bins here even outside of your regular service area, and we need them removed. Gave them the address, they said they would take care of it. That did not happen. Waited several weeks later, busy with moving and various new home tasks, no one has come to take the bins, or contacted us regarding the delay. So I called again, left a voicemail with a reminder of the situation, our address, my name and phone number, in case they had questions that needed answering in order to make this happen. Now that was more than a week ago, still no answer, no call back, and still four very full trash bins sitting and stinking in the scorching summer sun alongside our driveway. What magic words do we need to say for you to come get these trash bins?

I have been working with Star City Recycling for 5 years through the business I manage and 3 years…read morefor my own personal recycling at home. I have never once had a problem with them. In fact, I feel they have really made an extra effort to work with our schedules and needs. As a business, there are times we have more recycling. I can call them up and they'll come do a special pick up for us in addition to the weekly pick ups. They are always great about communicating if they are experiencing delays or having technical difficulties. They've also been flexible when a payment has been missed or overlooked. Overall, I can't recommend them highly enough. They are a fantastic small, family business here in Lincoln.

On October 20, 2017 I canceled my service with Star City Recycling and asked for a credit to my…read moreaccount since he bills two months at a time and I had paid for October and November. I contacted them again December 1, 2017 about a refund of $12 for unused service in November. Owner Garen Miller's reply was "We don't offer refunds on partial billing periods, but we apply this towards a one time pickup of materials your new company doesn't take if you like." I explained that I wanted a refund and not a one-time pickup of materials, that I had hired another recycling service. Plus, $12 for a one-time pick-up is unacceptable. My new service does a better job and picks up everything that Star City did, plus provides better service. No where on their website nor in anything that I have received from them, including the bill, is there mention of this non-refundable policy. I also was not informed that I would be paying for unused services when I gave my cancellation notice and that I could not get a refund. I think it's a scam for companies to keep money that was paid to them and not provide any service. One of the reasons I switched is that I'm retired and living on social security so look at ways that I can reduce what I pay for services. I'm a firm believer in recycling and have recycled for decades. In this case, I found a cheaper and better recycling service. Plus, it shouldn't matter why I switched services, but I did provide Star City ample notice. Certainly, it's unethical for any business to keep someone's money, especially since it's not made known that they will keep your money if you cancel. Imagine what a windfall this must be for them every time someone cancels service! As more people switch to private companies for recycling services, especially us older folks who find it more convenient that using drop-off sites, I think the citizens of Lincoln need to be aware of companies that will take advantage of them and are out to keep their money in any way they can. I filed complaints with the Better Business Bureau and the State Attorney's General office but it could not be resolved as Star City didn't want to refund my money. Legal Aid said it was civil matter and my only recourse was to file a claim. Mr. Miller knows that my only recourse would be to take them to small claims court, which would cost me more than the $12 I'm owed. So, they can continue to get away with such behavior. I don't think all recyclers are as unscrupulous as Galen Miller but it does seem deceptive and deceitful to have "policies" that no one knows about or perhaps are just made up on the fly in order not return someone's money because no services were provided. Unfortunately, as people sign up for recycling services, there is no way to know the repercussions if they stop the service since such information is not shared and not made public.

Marshall and his team are always very respectful of our home, our time and our budget needs. They are always kind and helpful in recommending what we need, and beyond if they notice other things they can help with. they use a black light to spot any stains we didn't notice (we have pets), and a special enzyme solution to keep from the dogs wanting to use that area again. And they give you a life time supply of their enzyme solution to use for spot treatment! If you run out, let them know, leave the empty bottle on the porch and they'll fill it up for you! Our carpets always smell SO good and feel soft after they leave. Their prices are very reasonable and their customer service is amazing! If you need a cleaning done, book right away, because they are booked about 2-3 weeks out (they're very sought after, and worth the wait).
