Trash bin cleaning in Fort Lauderdale
Fort Lauderdale runs on water and heat, and both of them work against a trash cart. We wash, sanitize and deodorize curbside bins across the city — from the Las Olas isles to Imperial Point — using truck-mounted heated water at high pressure, and we clean up after ourselves before we go.
On the ground in Fort Lauderdale
Why do bins in Fort Lauderdale's shaded side yards smell faster than ones in the sun?
Fort Lauderdale's older neighborhoods were not built with garbage in mind. In Victoria Park, Sailboat Bend and Colee Hammock, carts live in tight side yards and shaded alleys between houses built in the 1920s through the 1950s, where there is no sun to dry them out and no breeze to move the smell along. Shade plus humidity is the exact condition that lets a film of organic residue turn into a colony.
On the barrier island and along the finger isles — Harbor Beach, Las Olas Isles, Rio Vista — the problem changes shape. Salt air accelerates corrosion on lids and hinges, and a bin left within a few hundred feet of the Intracoastal collects a sticky, salt-laden grime that a garden hose spreads around rather than removes. Fish scraps from a good day out are a separate category of smell entirely, and they are the single most common reason people in this part of the city call us the first time.
West of Federal Highway, in Coral Ridge, Imperial Point and Bayview, lot sizes open up and carts usually sit beside the garage on a driveway apron. That is easier to service and easier to keep clean, but it also means the bin sits in full afternoon sun — and a closed plastic cart in a Fort Lauderdale August behaves like an oven. Heat is what drives the odor out into the yard, and heat is also what makes maggots go from eggs to visible in about a day.
We work Fort Lauderdale the day after collection, while carts are empty. Nothing to move, nobody who needs to be home.

Fort Lauderdale questions
Asked and answered
Do you clean bins on the Fort Lauderdale barrier island?
Yes. We service Harbor Beach, the Las Olas isles, and the residential streets east of the Intracoastal. Narrow driveways and gated entries are routine for us — tell us the access code when you book, or call 954-594-1666 and we'll note it on the account.
When do you come, relative to my garbage pickup?
The day after your collection day, so the cart is empty when we get there. Fort Lauderdale collection days vary by route, so check the City of Fort Lauderdale sanitation calendar for your address and tell us the day — we'll schedule around it.
Where does the dirty water go?
We work at the curb using our own water supply, and we tidy the area before we leave — no pooled water sitting on your driveway. Fort Lauderdale's drains run into the New River and the Intracoastal, so keeping the area clean is worth doing properly.
