We'd Love To Earn Your 5-Star Review!
SoCo waste has exceptional customer service (especially Kira, I have worked with her I believe every time I’ve called the company) and extremely affordable pricing in comparison to other providers in my area (south east Colorado Springs / security widefield).My wife and I moved into our house last year around July, and when we contacted all the waste management companies, these guys weren’t only the easiest to get ahold of, but the most affordable with the best additional services. Every trash company in town wanted $100-$200 for us to throw out an old king mattress, and they took it for $60!None of the above is why I’m leaving my review, I’m leaving this 5 star review because they are very transparent and there is no malicious feeling or attempt for money from this company. I had fraudulent activity on a credit card, canceled it and got a new one. I didn’t realize I was paying for my waste management with it, so they emailed me and told me they had to stop service because of neglect of payment. I called them, got it squared away in under 5 minutes and there was no late fee! How awesome is that? They only charged a $1.50 convenience fee when places like the dmv will charge you $3 for a credit card transaction. They are open about it up front! Support a local business and go with SoCo Waste Management.
Thank you to: Niko/ Brad for going the extra mile and getting our bin for us. We really appreciate it. We just switched over to SOCO Waste and forgot to bring our bin out to the curb. Thank you so much. 😊
When we bought our first home in 2021, the previous homeowners had another trash service. To keep things easy and avoid the cost of a bin placement, we stuck with that service.When SoCo came to my attention, I wanted to switch to support local business. It was an added perk that their services were not only less expensive, but also offer weekly recycling collection rather than bi-weekly. It was easily one of the best decisions I’ve made.SoCo Waste and Recycling is consistently on schedule and has never once missed a pickup and their communication is on point - not something I can say for other services.Beyond the timeliness, the drivers are also fantastic. I’ve never once received any gruff for having a second bin or the occasional extra bag outside the bin. Every driver has always been more than wonderful and courteous when we encounter one another, and on more than one occasion when our bins aren’t out - either because we didn’t have a need for pickup or I’d forgotten - they walked up to the house to retrieve them. I’ve even had a driver bring my trash bin from the curb to the house to check the recycling bin when I hadn’t put it out because it was empty.I cannot say enough about SoCo Waste and Recycling Services. I am proud to support them and have them service our community.
Soco waste is incredible! One of my neighbors said they accidentally left their cans up by the house and their driver went a still grabbed it! We were looking for a new company anyway so we decided to give Soco a try… best decision ever!! Our driver, Tyler B, has come up on multiple occasions - which I am so grateful for. Thank you! Great price, never missed a day, and they offer a wide variety of services for everything we need! Highly recommend!
Derek has gone above and beyond MULTIPLE times now to come up to our house and get our trash when we have forgotten it’s trash day again already. As a family with two littles, we often get lost in the motions and don’t realize it’s Monday again. Derek saves the day. Thank you for going the extra step! It means a lot.
Niko and Brad were thoughtful enough to notice we didn't put our trash out on the holiday, and they were kind enough to grab it and still take it for us. They were awesome
Derek took our bins out when we forget to put them out the night before. Thank you SOCO waste for hiring people that do their jobs with care!
My recycling driver Daniel is so wonderful I truly didn't think my trash was getting picked up for the holiday and he walked up and grabbed my not pulled down recycling can today and I very much so appreciate it. Thanks so much guys your awesome!
Niko and Brad did a good job of collecting our trash even though we forgot to do it.
Continue to go above and beyond since switching to SOCO. Multiple times they have brought our trash to the curb when we were unable. Continuously impressed by this local company. Love being able to call in and talk to a real person anytime I have had an issue.
Derek, thank you for taking the extra time and effort to grab our can as we forgot to put it out this morning. You are very much appreciated.
Tyler B! thank you so much for grabbing our cans. we just had a new baby and are moving currently and i totally blanked on putting my cans out. had you not went above and beyond for us, we would not have been able to get rid of more trash. you made it possible for us to keep it pushing and for that i thank you. stay blessed tyler b!!
SOCO has been a good trash company for us. Very reliable and making it easy for us by servicing on many holidays. Niko and Brad were very nice and helpful this morning, coming up to our house to grab our trash when I had forgotten it on Labor Day. Thank you both!
Today is Labor Day and we forgot to put out our trash can due to the weekend fun. This morning we heard the trash truck and my husband raced outside, but as he was doing that I looked out the window and saw that our driver Ivan was already walking up the driveway to get our trash for us. We also noticed that he was by himself meaning he had a heavy load but he wanted to help us anyway. This trash company has always been great to us. Thank you Ivan for going above and beyond!
SOCO Waste provides great trash service at a great price. Thanks, Chad, for picking up my trash even when I forgot to bring it to the curb!
Shout out to Arnez M. for going the extra mile. I love Soco Waste and I appreciate such great service for an affordable price.
Tyler B and Joe are the man! Came and checked my recycling when I forgot to put it out and pulled it to the curb for me. Very appreciative 🙂
I appreciate Derek going the extra mile while I was out of town and getting my trash taken care of. Thanks so much!
I was out of town so I missed trash day but thanks to driver Niko and throwers Brad and Jacob they went out of their way to get my trash anyways. I appreciate that so much !! Thank you
I love my trash men , I have been remodeling and have not been there in time to put out my trash all the way to the curb . Derek Got my trash from my yard by the curb for me . I can not be more thankful. Wow this is a new guy and I could not be more happy with m service. I recommend to anyone who ask about trash companies.
We’ve been using SOCO since buying our new home in April 2026. I’ve been super impressed by the value and consistency of this company. They’re proactive in their communication, their rates are fantastic, and their drivers do an excellent job.
Thanks Chad L.
Chad C. is absolutely amazing and always goes above and beyond to make sure our garbage service is taken care of. One time I forgot to put our garbage out at the curb, and Chad walked over to retrieve it himself so our service wouldn’t be missed—he is always prompt, reliable, and truly appreciated!
I forgot to put my trash on the curb and my driver came and got it anyway. That was such a relief.
Travis and Isaac helped me out as I forgot to put my cans on the curb. Thanks guys. I appreciate you going the extra mile to help me out.
SOCO Waste is a great locally owned company. Derek picked up my disposal today and took the extra time and effort to get my bins close to my home even though I forgot to leave them on the curbside for today’s pick up. Life was busy and I forgot, and very much appreciate the added effort and courtesy he showed by doing that. Thanks Derek, I appreciate you
Derek is an amazing driver! He is always kind and proactive, if I forget to bring my cans down he travels up my driveway to grab them. I truly appreciate him. He deserves a raise!
Travis and Isarl went above and beyond to help me today. I am dealing with some tragic family happenings and it was one bright spot I was able to have today. Please know that it was very appreciated.
I just moved to Colorado Springs and I’ve had such a wonderful experience with SOCO so far. Tyler B. even went out of his way to move my trash and recycling to the curb one morning that I’d forgotten. They have always been on time and reliable. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a trash and recycling service!
DRIVER DEREK WAS AMAZING. WE FORGOT TO PUT OUR TRASH CURVESIDE AND HE TOOK IT OPON HIMSELF TO PULL IT AND TAKE OUT TRASH. THATS CUSTOMER SERVICE.
Fairly priced, recycling every week, wonderful customer service. Just what i needed after leaving Waste Connections which is ironically trash at what they do. Womt use anyone else
Every once in a while, trash pickup morning can be a little hectic and this morning we neglected to move our bin to the curb…turns out, we had help getting the trash out! Our route driver - Derek - noticed our cart was not at the curb today so he took a few extra steps and made sure our trash was taken care of. We are undergoing cleanup around the property so the bin was full and needed to be picked up. It’s this act - GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND his responsibility to make sure our need (our responsibility) was met - that makes us entirely grateful for Derek. Normally, it may not seem like a big deal, but this time it was a big deal. Thank you Derek for taking the extra time and effort to make sure we can keep our clean up activities moving smoothly.
My wife is pregnant and I forgot to bring the bins down today. Our driver, Tyler B, took the time to grab our bins from the side of the house and bring them to the curb to empty for us. We have used SOCO for years and they have always been prompt and professional. Tyler B taking the initiative and time to grab our bins that were not our reinforces why we continue to use SOCO. Great company with great employees. SOCO, please recognize Tyler for the great team member and employee he is. We appreciate you, Tyler!!
Thank you for doing that for me Derek. I really appreciate it. That’s above and beyond you deserve a raise.
We forgot to bring our can to the curb for the first time today. When we came home, the can was at the end of the drive empty. Camera shows the truck coming right before it was moved. Thank you SOCO workers for having our back, walking the extra steps to bring our can up for us when most companies would have skipped us this week! True MVPs.
I forgot to move the trash to the curb this morning... My driver came and got it for me. I did not expect that!Thanks Gabe & Issac!
I forgot to put my garbage can at the curb today and the driver Derek walked up and grabbed it from our driveway. That is amazing customer service. Our can was completely full and if he didn't go the extra mile to help us we would have had to put bags of trash in our garage until the next pickup day. If you read this thank you Derek. You made my day!
I can’t believe Cedryk took the time out of his busy route to take my trash can to the curb. I was out of my normal routine this morning and I forgot to take it out. Thank you for going the extra mile for us, Cedryk! Please let us know if you have a favorite drink/snack/coffee shop so we can treat you sometime.
Always have had good customer service. Our driver and throwers Niko, Brad, and Jacob even took our trash when we forget to put it out on the curb.
Our Driver Niko and his Throwers Brad & Jacob were extremely professional! I totally spaced and forgot to bring my trash can down to the road and they took the unnecessary extra steps and time to come up and grab my cans for me. I truly appreciate SOCO Waste and highly recommend them to anyone seeking reliable, courteous service!
Niko, Brad & Jacob have grabbed my bin multiple times when Ive forgotten to set it at the curb. Thank you so much for going the extra mile. Means a lot!
Exceptional service. Friendly drivers. I was stuck in a meeting and did not have my trash out on the curb. Derek was kind enough to grab and empty it. Appreciate the service.
Love SOCO Waste and David G. is great!
I just started with so I and they been great! Affordable and I am still getting used to thirdays being trash day and have forgot to take the trash to the curb twice now. Each time the so I people has went above and beyond their duty grabbing my soco can up at my house and bringing it down and dumping. More specifically, this particular soco person is an individual by the name of Derek who is my driver! I am thankful for his thoughtfulness and excellent customer service and professionalism! A+ in my book😀
Derek was beyond helpful pulling our can out to take our trash after we forgot to put it out. Never had a trash man be so caring before
These guys went out of their way to get my trash can today. I didn’t put it out in its normal spot and they took it on themselves to get it from where I keep it. It wasn’t very far but they definitely did not have to do that. Can’t beat a locally owned business. Shout out to the boys who run the old north end route!
Thank you Derek. I forgot to put my cart on the curb this morning. He noticed our cart was not on the curb. He took extra steps to retrieve my cart from the front yard so that I had service today. I appreciate his kindness.
Derek is my driver and takes good care of me. On several occasions I have forgotten to take my can down to the curb and he has come up to get it. Excellent service, thank you Derek.
Derek found our trash can wasn’t on the curb this morning and took the extra steps to still take care of us.
Derek went above and beyond by helping us out when we forgot to put our trash on the curb. We appreciate him so much!
