Michiana Recycling and Disposal Service is this area’s leading independent, locally owned recycling and waste hauler, how we got here is a long story. Our family has serviced families and businesses like yours for four generations. Our beginnings date back to 1918 when we picked up garbage in the Chicago area. During that time we were not called garbage men, but scavengers. In the 1940s our family left Illinois and moved to Michigan where we again went into the garbage business.

Michiana Recycling and Disposal Service is this area’s leading independent, locally owned recycling and waste hauler, how we got here is a long story. Our family has serviced families and businesses like yours for four generations. Our beginnings date back to 1918 when we picked up garbage in the Chicago area. During that time we were not called garbage men, but scavengers. In the 1940s our family left Illinois and moved to Michigan where we again went into the garbage business. The 40s and 50s were years where garbage was fed to our pigs and the pigs were sold to market (keep in mind, during this time there was a lot more food scrap and a lot less plastic). In 1971 we began recycling operations for some of our commercial customers. Michiana Recycling and Disposal Services began servicing the Indiana market in 1990. Through the years the name of the company has changed as we have grown but our family’s commitment to our customers has not. Additionally during this time we have added many customers, as well as, absorbing some smaller haulers to become the company we are today.

The billing is frequently incorrect & we have to call--they don't change or notify you. They usually come on the day scheduled but anywhere from mid-morning to evening. If it weren't for the fact they are the "approved" carrier for our neighborhood, there is no way I would use them & certainly don't recommend them to anyone else. (Hide)

We changed providers for a larger container and a better price p/month. Up to this point the service has been good, we had a situation this Wed. the container was taken to the street Tues. evening (since our pick up time is around 5:30 A.M.) I went to bring the container back and discovered it was not empty I thought there was a delay or a breakdown of equipment. After 3:00 P.M. I decided to call and give notice of the missed pick up. I spoke to their associate about the problem, after a while I was informed that the driver said we did not have the container out on time, that was not the case, also there were two other neighbors that did not get their pick up, ALL containers were put out the night before.Called again the following day, and was told that they would make a run out but did not know when, may be on the regular day, means the trash sits by the road. I find this unacceptable, hope for resolve. (Hide)

This company ROCKS!! Not only are they much cheaper than the old garbage company, they provide recycling for free . they have a video on their website that shows how they recycle. My street has more and more of their carts on it.

Anyways, I have had nowhere near the experiences of the other people. Trash scattered throughout my lawn from their employees and overall dishonesty regarding my bill has led me to dump this company. I went with Superior Waste Systems and couldn't be happier. (Hide)

So far, so Good. I appreciate the friendly Customer service woman I spoke to on phone a few times. It is Kind of ODD though; All of the above customer reviews are dated July 30th? Nonetheless, so far, so good. Beats the heck out of Reliable!

I love the free curbside recycling its much easier then loading in car and taking to drop off site plus Michiana was cheaper then all other companies I called.

(More) Me and my husband had another trash hauler for years, but they never offered recycling. So a few years ago, we decided to look around for a hauler who would take our recyclables and found Michiana Recycling and Disposal. We switched to them because they cost less and take our recycling at no additional cost to us. Which is awesome because we don't have to drive our recyclables to a collection site, we just set them out at the curb! I would recommend this company to anybody. They make it easy to be green!
