They are super nice and easy to deal with, just go inside and ask for advice on what to do if you have never been there before and they are really cool about it. None of your typical "blue collar chip on the shoulder" attitude. They take a lot of different stuff too. I was paid really well for Christmas lights and old wiring. They also take old circuit boards and electronics by the pound They buy just about anything containing metal you could think of And they pay cash

When I originally switched to Best Way (BW), it was largely due to their competitive rates. As my business relationship with BW developed, I was pleased to find that their customer service was great - particularly in that I didn't have to wait on hold for excessively long times just to speak with someone. I have had one experience with a BW rep that was a bit short with me, cutting me off repeatedly, but in general their customer service has been great. I would also say that I appreciate and support local businesses as opposed to huge nationwide company. I support BW, and appreciate their prompt attention to my concerns, and that I have never been on hold with them longer than a minute!

I owned a vacant residential property and was trying to get some large items moved away. I believe…read morein recycling. The items included a broken dryer, an old gas grill, and a large industrial-style metal mop bucket. I contacted Meridian Recycling because they were having a big event called Meridian Regional Recycling Event on April 23, 2016. I phoned and asked if they could come pick up the items at my house in west Lansing. The man on the phone said his volunteers were pretty busy with pickups, but if I could get the items to Okemos, they would accept them. I was disappointed because I had no way to move the items. The dryer was in the basement and still hooked up! A half-hour later I received a call from a different person who said he would personally come to the house to pick up the items. He and a young volunteer, whose name I have unfortunately forgotten, worked very hard to properly disconnect the dryer and moved it up the stairs, carried it around the house, lifted it over a locked gate, and loaded it into a vehicle. Then they moved the grill and bucket (I showed them an easier way to get out of the back yard). No charge to me for having them do this heavy, dirty work. I know the metal will be recycled and this makes me happy. The two men worked hard and never complained. They were polite and friendly. I am very grateful.

If you want them to not pick up your trash the week before a holiday, the week of a holiday, and the week after a holiday, this is the trash company for you. They have missed three out of the four weeks this month of picking up our trash, we call and file a missed pick up and they promise they'll be out next week. They continue to miss us. They say they can't find our trashcan when it has been sitting at the end of our driveway for three whole weeks and it seems to be a game on the phone to cancel their service as my husband spent 45 minutes doing that and got nowhere. bad service all around

Pickups are inconsistent. Trash used to be picked up on…read moreFridays and about once a month my trash wouldn't be picked up. They just changed our pickup day to Tuesdays to "better service my area" and two weeks in a row they haven't picked up my trash. I have the truck on camera just rolling right past my can. The first missed pickup I was told that someone would be back by the end of business the next day. No one ever picked up the trash and I got an email saying my pickup had been rescheduled to the next normal pickup day...that's just a normal pickup, not an extra pickup like I should have had because my first pickup wasn't done. A week goes by and I get my trash out the night before as usual and once again my trash isn't picked up. I was in my driveway and watched them drive past. I immediately called so that the truck could just drive back past the house and pick it up since they had JUST driven by. A note is in the system that the Driver says that no trash can was put out. I was once again told that my trash would be picked up by end of business today. Just checked, and I have an email saying my trash will be picked up next week. Reached out to customer service and she confirmed that. Says she can give me a credit for one week. No. Would not recommend this company if they were the only trash company within 100 miles.
