I really appreciate this twice a year. Plus the curbside pickup of 5 items is a real help with spring cleaning.
Maybe the paper shredding will come back too but this service to UP is such a help.

Why don’t you have a place I take my Old Stand-alone Air/Heater because it is OUT of Freon? I have things like a 20″ round stand alone Fan not working and a few vacuums not working right. I sure wish you had a real Place I can take this and other items! Very frustrating in live in this vicinity!
