Apartment valet trash service 

is a convenient amenity where trash and recycling are collected directly from residents’ doorsteps, typically five to seven nights a week, enhancing convenience and community cleanliness.


How It Works

Valet trash services provide doorstep collection of trash and recycling for apartment residents. Residents place securely tied trash bags in designated containers outside their doors during a scheduled set-out window, usually in the evening. Service staff, often called Service Valets, then collect the waste and transport it to the community dumpster or compactor using leak-proof satchels or tilt carts, ensuring no dragging or spillage occurs. Each pickup is often documented with a Proof of Pickup system for reliability. 

Service Frequency and Scheduling

Most valet trash services operate five to seven nights per week, with customizable schedules to fit the community’s needs. Residents typically return their empty containers inside their apartments by the next morning. Bulk item removal, such as furniture, appliances, or in-unit trash outs, is often available upon request.

Residents are generally required to:
