Talking Trash services the Sun Tran bus stops around Tucson, Oro Valley, Marana, South Tucson and Pima County among other trash services. Prior to our taking over the contract 2 years ago, Sun Tran found the level of service by the two larger multi-million dollar companies to be substandard. Entering our third year of servicing with the bus stop contract, Talking Trash has kept the contract running smooth, ahead of schedule and under budget.

Talking Trash currently maintains routes in Green Valley and the Tucson Foothills. We primarily service patio home communities that have limited space for barrel storage. Our properties range in size from 13 residents to 600+. Talking Trash is by no means one of the larger trash providers in the market and we intend to keep it that way. Customer focus and attention are critical to our success. All our drivers and support staff have one goal in mind…..to delight you with our service.

Talking Trash focuses on customer service and 'bending' to meet the customers unique needs. A few of the issues we have been able to address for HOA's include:
•Special adjusted pricing for winter visitors
•Behind the gate service for premier properties
•Lighter single axel truck options
•Competitive pricing with once, twice or three times per week service options
•Full service trash and recycle services
•Truck cleaning programs that reduce or eliminate oil leakage
•Staff that have a can do attitude
•Offering Bulk Trash Services to our clients
•Local Support and Service - we live here in Tucson and can address issues immediately
•Proven track record of customer service and reliability

Talking Trash also maintains a bulk trash removal division that markets to consumers and businesses in Pima County to handle their heavy or bulky trash services.

Talking Trash trucks are equipped with state of the art GPS systems that allow the company to optimize truck routes and respond real time to our customers.
