Flash Trash collects once per week. Our plan options are as follows: 1 CONTAINER PLAN: 1- 96-Gallon container. We will accept broken down cardboard outside the container, OR 1 small household item, OR 1 extra bag of trash. 2 CONTAINER PLAN: Up 2 - 96-gallon trash cans or their equivalent, which equates to approximately 200 gallons of household trash. We will accept broken down cardboard outside the container, OR 1 small household item OR, 1 extra bag of trash. We promise a trash collection day and no a trash appointment or collection window. If your trash is not collected by 7pm, and it was at the curb by 5am, please register a missed collection through your account platform and we will get someone back out to you to re-collect. Please break down all cardboard and bag your trash in appropriate trash bags. These precautions are in place to prioritize the safety of our Flash Trash teams, especially given the increased prevalence of illnesses. By bagging your trash, we minimize potential contact with your garbage, promoting a safer environment for everyone. Should you require more than the allowed limit of two 96-gallon containers, we encourage you to give us a call. Our team will be happy to provide you with a custom quote tailored to your specific needs. https://media4.giphy.com/media/Oj7yTCLSZjSt2JMwi2/giphy.gif?cid=4faa2cdcabupjp4rwts2jrkgkk7u2b210i2nf50x3wbru4oz&rid=giphy.gif&ct=g

Trash must be out the night before your collection day. Our trucks run different routes each day, and collection times can vary between 6:00 AM and 7:00 PM due to traffic, weather, landfill delays, new team members, or route changes. To avoid being missed, have your trash at the curb by 5:30 AM — or better yet, the night before. We cannot return for missed pickups. Thanks for helping us keep routes efficient and on schedule!

Absolutely! At Flash Trash, we offer hassle-free bulk pick-up, junk removal, and full house cleanout services. Whether you're getting rid of a few large items or clearing out an entire property, we've got you covered. To schedule a bulk pick-up, simply fill out our online request form. This helps us coordinate the right crew and equipment for the job. 🚫 Please note: Bulk pick-ups are scheduled separately and are not included in your regular weekly service—unless the items are small enough to be loaded onto the standard garbage truck. We make it easy to clean up—just let us know what you need!

At Flash Trash, we move fast — because trash waits for no one! The moment you subscribe, you’re automatically assigned to the next available route in your neighborhood. In most cases, your first pick-up happens within a week or less. Behind the scenes, our system quickly gets everything in place: 📍 Assigning your address to a route 🗑️️ Coordinating your bin delivery (if you've placed an order) 🛻 Coordinating logistics ✅ Ensuring a smooth, reliable start - all in seconds!

Due to repeated misuse, yard waste is no longer included in our regular service. As a courtesy, we may pick up 1–2 bags of yard waste during your scheduled pickup if truck space allows — but this is not guaranteed. In select HOAs, yard waste pickup is available by request or may be included as part of an HOA plan. If you're a current customer and need a one-time yard waste collection, give us a call! We’re happy to schedule a pickup for you.

The State of Florida (https://floridadep.gov/waste/hazardous-waste-permitting/content/household-hazardous-waste)defines household hazardous waste (HHW) as something that is ignitable (flammable), corrosive, reactive or toxic. Some examples of HHW are: • Car batteries • Computer Batteries • Fluorescent bulbs • Gasoline • Household cleaners • Motor oils • Paint • Pesticides • Pool chemicals • Propane tanks • And some other items The characteristic these items all have is that they are dangerous to people if they are exposed to them. According to the DEP, these materials can contaminate our drinking water and have long term health effects. For this reason, every county in Florida, including Citrus County, has a household hazardous waste program. Find the Citrus County Hazardous Waste Program Here (https://www.citrusbocc.com/departments/public_works/solid_waste_management/disposing_items/household_hazardous_waste.php#:~:text=Citrus%20County%20businesses%20and%20unassessed%20households%20can%20use,of%20the%20waste%20products%20will%20require%20a%20fee.) If these items are placed out with your household collection we will leave them curbside.
