I have contacted Valet Trash multiple times about my trash not being picked up. This has happened on 15 different occasions. Each time I contact customer care and representative state a manager will call me. Two years later and Ive yet received any call. But Valet Trash continues to get my money while providing poor service. Valet Trash doesnt take customer complaints seriously. In fact they completely ignore and disregard customers complaints. The service provided by Valet trash is atrocious . I have ring doorbell video footage for all 15 times my trash wasnt picked up. I pay for a service in which Valet Trash fails to ********** trash should be collected each time I put it out on trash collection days. This is unacceptable and its quite obvious that Valet Trash doesnt value their loyal customers . If you cant truly service your customers as they deserve then get out the business. Because right now your service is worthless yet I still have to pay for it. At this point my account should credited due to the awful service Ive received.I will definitely make sure share my experience on all social media platforms. So that it will warn potential future customers of the horrible service in which ******************** Trash provides.Business Response

I have to pay a monthly fee to Valet Living every month which is contracted through my apartment community. This is mandatory fee. Every week at least once, sometimes 2 to 3 times a week I have to call Valet Living to advise them that my trash wasnt picked up. Every time I ask for a manager to call me back as this happens every single week. Why do they advertise a service they are not able to complete? Last night my trash wasnt picked up again which results in animals coming and dragging the trash everywhere which is left for me to clean up. I refuse to do that anymore. If we can not come to a resolution on how you to do your job and complete the service youre advertising, I am going to have to see about a suit and getting my money back on a service I dont receive.Business Response

I have had problems with Valet Living trash service for the three years that I have had to deal with them. Most recently in the past two months, It has escalated to a point where I am being FINED by my apartment complex because Valet Living does not provide the services I am forced to pay for. To begin, Last month I began to notice that they would break the drawstrings of trash bags and leave them in the breezeways of the apartment building. This also caused them to drop trash and leave it in the breezeways. More recently, They have failed to pick up trash from my apartment. Most specifically, I placed Trash on my doorstep in the bin on Wednesday February 26th at 4PM (3 Hours Prior to the scheduled pick-up) and it remained on my porch until Sunday March 2nd. This caused the leasing office to levy fines against me because one bag had fallen out of the trash can.Business Response

All trash must be securely placed inside or on top of the designated Valet Living trash receptacle to be properly collected. To ensure safety and prevent the accidental collection of personal, non-trash items, improperly placed trash bags may not be collected.
Valet Living is a third-party vendor contracted through your leasing office and does not charge individual residents directly. Any fees associated with your service are managed by your leasing office, and any questions regarding those charges should be directed to them.

This company charges to remove trash from apartment complexes. Their rules clearly state that let wast will be removed so long as it weighs less than 25 pounds and is double bagged. We adhere strictly to these parameters. The gentleman that works for the company has never once removed the pet waste. I talked to him about it and he said I dont care what the company says, I dont do that. Ive written several complaints to the company, so had the property management company for my apartment and they simply do not care. Terrible, horrible business practices with terrible employees evidently.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: after continued correspondence with valet waste as well as the manager ******, the employee STILL refuses to take our cat litter. We are done at this point and are in talks with legal representation for money weve spent for this service. This is absolutely ridiculous and the company clearly doesnt care. Ive never written a complaint on my life, but by god this is worth it. Poor company, with sad excuses for employees. I had this job when I was younger as well, so this isnt some self righteous privileged nonsense. Im a blue collar working man, and every dollar I make goes towards providing for my family. Im forced by my alarm the t complex to pay for this worthless service and its not right. FIX IT

The business charges $25 monthly to pick up trash from my community (and several others). The fee is NOT optional and it mandatory. When moving into the community there wasn't a restriction but then they changed to only working Sunday-Thursday. They only pick up trash at a specific time but are often late or just don't show up. They have now restricted consumers further by only allowing 1 bag of trash to be taken with any additional bags resulting in additional feesBusiness Response

I am required to pay for Valet trash service through my apartment complex, ********** at ***********. Since moving in at the beginning of July I have had continuous issues with the trash service not picking up trash, which is the service we pay for. They are supposed to pick up trash Sunday-Thursday and they continue to leave trash behind multiple times a week. I follow their procedures and rules, like breaking down boxes and double bagging pet waste, but they do not take my trash or broken down boxes. They went as far as to bring another persons box up and leave it in front of my trash can. I have filed complaints with the apartment complex as well as the company and have gotten no resolution. I am required per my lease to pay $35 a month for this service that is not being completed. I have documented emails and photos with dates this issue has occurred and I want action taken against this company. If you look them up every single review has complaints about the company not completing the service they are paid for. I am not the only person experiencing this within my complex or any other complex they serve.Business Response

I am writing to formally submit a complaint against the valet trash service provided at **************** and Townhomes.Details of the Complaint:Date of Service Start: The valet trash service commenced in September 2023.Amount Paid: I have been paying $30 per month since the beginning of 2024, which is included in my ************* Commitment: The business committed to providing regular trash pickup from my apartment.Nature of the Dispute: Since the start of the service, I have experienced repeated failures in trash pickup. My trash has been regularly skipped, and I had to file a complaint with their office after the initial service start to prompt them to address the issue. Although they attempted to resolve the situation following my complaint, the problems have persisted. I am now facing ongoing harassment regarding minor issues with my trash, including complaints about the lid being slightly ajar, even when the bag is securely inside the bin.Additionally, my sister lives in the same community, and she has never had issues with her trash being picked up, despite her lid often being open and her trash not always being in the bin. I even have Ring camera footage that shows her trash being picked up without any complaints or reports being made to our leasing office.Resolution Attempts: While the business did try to address the situation after my initial complaint on 10/20/2023, they have made no further attempts to resolve the ongoing issues Ive been experiencing since that time.I believe this situation is unacceptable, especially considering I am paying for a service that is not being delivered as promised. I request that you investigate this matter and take appropriate action.Thank you for your attention to this complaint.Sincerely,******* ******** ******************************************************************** ************ Apartment 279Business Response

Subject: Formal Complaint Against Valet Living Dear Better Business Bureau,I am writing to formally file a complaint against Valet Living regarding their repeated failure to provide the services for which they are contracted. Despite multiple attempts to resolve this issue through phone calls and emails, no action has been taken to rectify the situation.Valet Living has consistently failed to pick up trash from our residence on the scheduled days. This issue has persisted for an extended period, and despite multiple communications to report and address the problem, there has been no improvement.I have contacted Valet Living several times through phone and email, yet I have only received vague responses, empty promises, or no reply at all. This lack of professionalism and disregard for their obligations has caused significant inconvenience for myself and other residents.I am requesting the Better Business Bureau to intervene and assist in resolving this matter. I would like Valet Living to:1.Immediately resume regular and reliable trash collection services as promised.2.Provide a clear explanation for their repeated failures.3.Offer a refund or adjustment for the period during which services were not rendered.Thank you for your time and assistance. Please let me know if you require further information or documentation to support my complaint.Business Response
