Bill signed up for weekly services and we will begin the initial cleanup followed by every Tuesday cleanup on 3/15/2022. He is paying $80 per month for Every Tuesday Cleanups.

The agreed rate for the spring cleanup is $100. On the first cleanup (3/15/2022), Bill will be billed for the first cleanup (100) and the remainder of the month (2 more cleanups) on 3/15/2022.

Initial Cleanup: $100

With respect to scheduling, we are unable to provide a timeframe on your scoop day. We have many yards to clean, and our routes are constantly being optimized for efficiency. This also helps keep our rates low for you! Our routes run from around 7am to dark. 

Communication is important and you will always receive notice via text when we are on the way. We provide about 10-15 minutes notice, so you are properly informed of our arrival. Your scoop day will be the same day each week. If your service day ever changes, we will always communicate with you in advance. 

No, you do not have to be home when we clean. We simply ask for easy access to your gate. We can also clean with your dogs in your yard if they are friendly. Our team loves all animals! Once the cleanup is completed, we will send a picture of your closed gate to your phone number or email on file, so you have records of it.

Note: If our staff has never met your dogs before and you are home, please let the technician know ahead of time that you will be letting the dogs out for an introduction. We don’t want to startle anyone! 

Great question! If your service day falls on a major holiday, we will skip that week’s cleanup and perform double doody the following week. You will still be charged due to 2 weeks of accumulated waste in the yard.

Yes! We disinfect our equipment after each cleanup with an organic, kennel-grade disinfectant to prevent the spread of germs. 

1. Your yard must be easily accessible

2. Lawns should be cut on a regular basis without large amounts of leaves or debris. Autumn in the scooping industry is known as “poop camouflage season.” Please be mindful that we can only pick up what we can see.

3. Gates should be free of snow & Ice and unlocked when we arrive. If you provide us with gate codes, we will always lock up once we are done.

4. Aggressive dogs must be left indoors on scheduled service days.

5. If you know you will not need services, please give us at least 48 hours’ notice.
