Same here my husband had the same terrible experience. The guy said $50 before he was weighed at the end. It was just debris. Even after it was weighed still $50. That’s absolutely ridiculous. Also it was cash only. That was the last time he will go.
Absolute robbery, 461.00 to dump hurricane tree debris in the town I live in. Guy at counter was rude - didn’t inform me of the cost until I dumped!!! This is a total scam of a local city municipality- robbing the people for cleaning up their property!!! A formal complaint will be filed on Monday !!! I own a construction company that dumps all the time - similar weight and 75% less money. Absolutely disgusted to say I’m a resident of Tarpon!!! Also, cash only??? What type of facility doesn’t take CC these days? Robbery !!!
Gave them cash because, no credit or debit cards accepted. The guy working the yard put it straight in his pocket. How does the city track the cash? Seems like the guys running the place have a great side business.
Unfortunately there price has gone up to a ridiculous fee $50 for a truck bed of yard waste 🤣 nice people there but Pinellas dump is a far drive but only like 10 bucks I guess I'll take the drive lol
What would have cost us 20$ to dispose at any other dump costed us nearly 80$ here. I understand the convenience of the location, but this was a steal on their part.
Guys in the shack are great, always pleasant to work with. Unfortunately the increase in price from $20 to $50 will force me to Pinellas Park or burn it. $50 for a pick up truck of yard debris is ridiculous.
The guys in the office are great they handle business fast always give a detailed receipt and they're always open when they say they're going to be open
Great place to dispose of yard waste, furniture, mattresses and DYI project debris for a reasonable fee.
Also dispose of cardboard, single stream recycle and metal for no fee.
Very nice staff, very helpful. Prices are reasonable.
As an FYI they do have a transfer station, so you can bring household solid waste. Couches, and some construction waste.
Thank you City of Tarpon Springs.
ITS 2021! AND THIS BUSINESS DOES NOT ACCEPT CREDIT OR DEBIT. literally the hillbilly that runs the business says cash or check lol check..... who the hell carries a check in this day and age. get with the times. literally cash app, square, paypal, zelle, venmo something but not a CHECK lol what the hell.. and when i called no answer
With the work going on trying to finish Meres the entrance is a little tricky
Being a citizen of Tarpon Springs it is a very great service that the city offers. Thanks
Great place to have, however for us who work all week and only have weekends to cleanup it would be nice if they could stay open longer especially after Hurricane Irma!!! Really????
We have bought a property in Tarpon Springs recently and we found this facility very handy and useful. We have not had anything like that where we live now.
Pretty expensive for a small truck load of yard waste. I have been to the yard three times and have been charged different prices every time: 15, 20 and like 40 dollars. It cost twenty dollars for a small truck load of limbs. I live on the border of Palm Harbor and Tarpon Springs. I guess it is five dollars if you live in Tarpon and bring a utility bill. I won't be going back and need to find a place in Palm Harbor.
Great place when its open. They close on random weekends. What holiday is on February 18th 2017? Call them before you spend part of your weekend loading your truck or trailer.
