Rubbish Removal

Any recommendations for someone to haul away old carpet and some minor renovation debris (built in shelves that were removed). Maybe a van load max. We used to use a guy named Rafael who was fantastic but I've lost his contact info.

I just used J.A.G. Rubbish Removal on Sunday and they were outstanding. I ripped out two walls of floor to ceiling mirrors and he took them all away for $100. wouldn't even let me help him load the truck. (718) 621-9099

Hi, don't fill up a landfill with more old carpeting! recycle it! carpetcycle.com is terrific. We recycled over 3,000 square feet of old carpeting and the same amount of padding when we bought our old house last year through carpetcycle. Here's a little more from the carpetcycle website: Carpet is a petroleum-based product. It is estimated that carpet recycling programs can save more than 700,000 barrels of oil per year, conserving 4.4 trillion BTUs of energy. Energy savings translate into reduced pollutants as well, minimizing air and greenhouse gas emissions. CarpetCycle's objective is to provide economic and sustainable solutions to post consumer carpet generators.
