Poor and unethical service!

If you sign up with these people you'll find:

1) They skip scheduled pickups without batting an eye. And you're
still billed for the missed pickup. Non-negotiable.

2) If you want to cancel "service" they charge you $45 to pick up
THEIR trash receptacles, regardless of condition! (Check their fine
print.) And because AAA will not give a receipt for the receptacle at
pickup, there is nothing to stop them from billing you $100 for an
"unreturned" or lost receptacle.

These underhanded billing procedures serve as CANCELLATION CHARGES!
AAA is the only trash company that does this.

I have established a case with the Better Business Bureau of Metro
Washington, D.C. and Eastern Pennsylvania to dispute the $45 charge.
But AAA has a lengthy list of complaints with the BBB, so arbitration
might take a while.

Yes, you are very correct.

We had AAA years ago and they are terrible. They don't pick up the
trash sometimes. Are arbitrary about what they will pick up.
Sometimes will take yard waste and sometimes they won't. Sometimes
things like tree branches must be tied together and other times must
not be tied. They are arrogant as h***.

I dumped them and got BFI and had hard time getting AAA to pick up
their bin and recycle box. They finally picked the things up and then
tried to charge me for them saying they did not get them. They also
sent bills for several months saying we did not cancel the service
correctly????

Then AAA bought BFI and again we were stuck with AAA's bad service.

A friend recommended New Vision Services and we have been delighted
for several years. New Vision is a local company and you get a human
when you call and they will take care of any problems. I'd recommend
New Vision to anybody looking for good service if they work in your
area. Look them up in phone book.

Three months after I (thought I'd) cancelled my AAA anti-service,
they're still trying to hold me up for $45 for "reconditioning" my
receptacle, which they picked up in excellent condition in January!

The Better Business Bureau of Greater Washington can get no
intelligible response to my complaints, which the BBB says is among
many dozens they've got on file against AAA.
