Reliable Pick-Up Services — No Subcontractors, No Surprises

Pick-ups may seem simple—but not all vendors treat them the same.

Many providers subcontract pick-up services or rely on third-party carriers like FedEx when servicing areas outside their immediate reach. Why? Because covering a wide geographic area is expensive. More miles = more cost.

🚚 At Modern Waste, we never subcontract pick-ups.

We directly service nearly all of California and parts of Nevada—and pick-ups are a core part of our business model, not an afterthought.

Here’s why we insist on doing it ourselves:

  • Ongoing oversight and training

To reduce liability and improve your operational efficiency.
