Denali Refuse
Mile 49.5 Parks Hwy 670 Dandelion Cr, Meadow Lakes, Alaska, United States

Denali Refuse is a local alternative to the national waste collection service in Alaska’s Mat-Su Valley.” Our mission is to provide competition in the Valley at lower cost with excellent service!”During spring thaw, the ground and driveways get very soft. Soft enough, that even personal cars and trucks will leave ruts. Our delivery truck and garbage trucks weigh considerably more and can leave very deep ruts or get stuck. This can also affect paved driveways, especially newer construction construction. If you notice your driveway is getting soft, please call us to move your container(s) close to the main road before things become an issue. This includes detached 3- or 4-plexes with trash cans picked up on a shared driveway. Once the ground hardens we can move the container(s) back to the original pickup location.

2016 STANDARD DUMPSTER SERVICE

Customers are responsible for access to the dumpster. The truck needs to have clear, safe access to the front of the dumpster to pick it up and maneuver around the driveway/parking lot area. The ground in front of the dumpster needs to be firm enough to drive on during all seasons. During winter months the driveway and parking areas must be well sanded or graveled on the scheduled pickup day if icy. Overhead obstructions such as tree limbs must be trimmed back. If the driver is unable to safely access the dumpster for any reason it will be considered a “blocked” dumpster.If you have a locked gate with a combination please make sure the office has the code so the driver can access the dumpster outside your regular business hours. If there is no combination and you will be closed on holidays please let us know in advance of the holiday so we can schedule around your business hours if possible.
