Make everyday disposal easier. Plan around weekend volume and move-out mess, with cleanouts quoted separately. Measure actual collection patterns before changing the schedule.
For Vermont property owners & managers
From their door.
To your collection point.
Scheduled bagged-trash collection for Vermont property owners and managers. We move bags from an approved point near the resident to your property’s existing collection area. Your hauler stays in place.
Collection points and access require property and fire-safety review before service. Published rates are provisional for the stated tier scope. Food scrap service is excluded and requires separate arrangements and a quote. Final service scope and total rate must be agreed in writing. Recycling add-ons do not include food scraps.
A service shaped around your residents
Same chore. Different reasons to solve it.
Senior communities
Help residents avoid a difficult outdoor chore in winter. Discuss accessible collection and the requests staff handle today. Owner funding is an option; no resident fee is presumed.
One accountable service
Agree on collection records, a named contact and a recovery process for missed pickups. Establish the baseline, then review what improved during the pilot.
Collection nights
An agreed pickup plan. A clear next step.
Enroll and sticker
Each unit gets a Trash Valet sticker for its container.
Use the agreed collection point
Residents place tied bags at an approved location during the window agreed for the building.
We collect on your schedule
A porter takes bags to the property collection area. Collection timing is determined upon agreement.
Bring containers back inside
Bin return timing is determined upon agreement for each building.

Built for Vermont properties
Easier collection, cleaner common areas.
Help residents sort recycling
Recycling scope depends on the plan. Food scraps need a separate arrangement and quote. We will discuss what remains with your existing hauler; no compliance assurance or preferred partner is promised.
Fewer trips across icy lots
Explore fewer outdoor trips from residents’ homes to the dumpster. For senior communities, discuss accessibility and affordability before choosing a funding model.
A tidier dumpster area
Routine doorstep collection and optional corral management help keep bags and loose trash under control.

Your preliminary property proposal
Your property, in numbers.
What this proposal covers
Scheduled bagged-trash collection from an approved point near residents to the property's existing collection area. Your existing hauler stays in place.
Rates are provisional for the stated plan. Standard is trash only; weekly recycling adds $2 per apartment per month. Essential includes monthly recycling; Premium includes weekly recycling. Food scraps require a separate arrangement and quote. Add-ons, discounts and other property costs are not included in these figures.
Collection points, access and timing require building-specific review. Burlington Code 18-96 prohibits waste accumulating in passageways and other escape routes. A 36-inch gap or short set-out window does not establish permission. Unattended hallway set-out is not promised. Final scope and total price must be confirmed in writing. No service launch, pilot or agreement is created here.
Extras and a measured start
Extra scheduled nights, bulk removal, move-out cleanouts and enclosure cleanup are quoted separately. Agree on pilot scope, dates, responsibilities and price first. Track pickups, misses and recovery, bags by day, route time and staff requests. Review results before changing agreed days or expanding.
The next conversation
Tell us what your current collection arrangement asks of residents and staff, where access is difficult, and who needs to review a proposed change. We can then scope a practical next step with your property team.
