Great service, have used the last 2 years and have always provided consistent service with really affordable prices.

I live at the very end of an extremely bumpy and rough dirt road and had pretty much assumed trash service was never going to be a luxury for my family. After cleaning up the trash that our 2 Labradors had strung across the yard and porch for the millionth time I decided to google “Rocky Point Trash services” and see what happened. Eastern Waste and Recycling popped up. Boy was I pleasantly surprised when they said they come down the dirt road from Hell I call home. I had 1 trash can and a recycling can (both extra large) delivered the very next day!!! Their rates are extremely affordable too!! Give them a call, you won’t be disappointed!
