  I signed up for Curbside Waste in May of 2022 at a guaranteed rate for two years. I was promised yard waste for $99 a year and trash pickup for $14 a month for two years. After the first year Curbside increased the yard waste to $212 a year and the trash pickup to a higher rate. I called and tried to cancel.Curbside told me at that time I had a two-year commitment and would be charged a cancellation fee of $200. They told me I had to wait another year before I could cancel. I waited another year and cancelled on July 19th of 2024. They then told me I waited past the renewal date and have to pay a $200 cancellation fee to cancel. They then advised me i went past the auto renewal date and have to wait another year to cancel without paying a cancellation fee. They also advised me I would have to advise them 30 days in advance of the new auto renewed contract.I haven't paid that fee. They said there was an auto renewal clause in the contract. They never told me there was a contract; I never received a contract; I never signed a contract; they never told me there was a contract date; they never told me about an auto renewal clause, and they never advised me of a 30-day notice prior to an annual contract date. I need your help in not paying a cancellation fee that I was not advised about. Thank you, *****************

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.  They cancelled the cancellation fee because they gave me the incorrect advice.

  I have had trash service through Curbside Waste since 2020. I was never made aware that I had a yard waste service. They cancelled my trash service saying I never paid them for my yardwaste and that I owed them over $600. This is insane. I never had a yard waste can. Never had any yardwaste collected and was never made aware by email or bills in the mail. No phone calls or voicemails were left.

  On May 13 someone came to our door to sell us service plan for garbage removal. I then read reviews and complaints on the BBB website and decided we did not want to switch to this provider due to many negative reviews. I immediately signed the cancellation policy on the bottom of the contract I had signed and mailed it to the company, per their contract. I called the company on May 14 to verify we did not want service to start. I was told we would not be billed and everything was canceled and no further action was needed. We received a bill in the beginning of June, which we immediately sent back without payment and with acknowledgment that we had already canceled service. On June 26, we came home to a garbage can in our driveway. I immediately called and was told that they had record of me canceling on May 14 and that they would pick the can up within 7 days and to leave it at the end of the driveway.On July 12 the can was still there so I called again and was told it would be picked up within ***** hours.As of July 18, the can is still in our driveway. We need it to be picked up immediately as our city will give tickets for garbage cans left out more than 24 hours after garbage pick up day.

  We have not had a trash bin for TWO weeks. We can called at least 6 times trying to get a new trash can without success. Repeatedly we have been told it will arrive within ***** hours with no such arrival. We have two trash bags sitting outside our house that fill the street with a terrible odor because they havent picked up our waste in over 2 weeks despite the service we PAY for. We need a trash can. We can each called and no action has been made other than reassurance with no evidence of effort being made.

  Fraudulent company! I never signed up for service with this company!! A sales rep came by for this company and took down my name and email to send me more information, I never signed anything or agreed to anything and for some reason I have trash bins that show up a few weeks later!! I have called numerous times to have them picked up and they still have not been picked up!! I also received a bill in the mail.. again never signed up for service!! The trash bins need to be picked up immediately!!!! No bill will be paid because I never signed up!! A complaint has been filed with the Minnesota attorney general!!

  A door-to-door salesman came and said he would guarantee to cut our garbage bill in half if we switched to them. I provided my contact info and was told someone would get in touch with me prior to any account being set up or cart being delivered. No one called me, so I called them myself and waited on hold 45 minutes before someone answered. I was not impressed and told the person I am sticking with my current garbage service after all. They told me an account hadnt been created yet, so they would make a note to disregard my info submitted. about 2 weeks later a garbage cart showed up at my house. I immediately emailed them to come pick it up and they tried to sell me on their services with an enticement. I saw through the shady, dishonest nature of their tactics and declined, asking again to have the cart picked up. In their next email they said I signed a service agreement (I didnt) so they are starting my service. I said no, pick it up and delete my account. Then I received an invoice in the mail for service. I emailed them again and they said it would be $150 charge to pick up the cart and cancel service. This is such poor customer service and obviously a frequent occurrence based on the other statements Ive read on here. Very disappointed at these deceptive and predatory business practices.

  The waste management dropped off the garbage bins without our consent and haven't come picked it up after multiple attempts to call them and ask them to. It's causing blockage in our driveway and causing a major headache. We never agreed to anything and then the garbage bins just show up one day and now has been sitting in our drive way for couple of weeks. Same thing happened to our neighbors.

  A representative from this company came by and gave us a flyer about these services a few weeks ago, but we never signed up for anything.Yesterday one of their garbage cans ended up in our driveway. I called the company to see if maybe it was accidentally put on our driveway by mistake.They said that we have active service and a $30 dollar bill that's due.From reading other reviews on ****** it looks like this isn't the first time this has happened.
