Routes begin after most residents have returned home for the evening and concluded before standard quiet hours are in full effect. This timing prevents conflicts with resident and visitor traffic and ensures a quiet, undisturbed environment overnight.

The Onboarding & Launch Process
We follow a structured, multi-phase onboarding process to guarantee a seamless launch of valet trash service at your property. Our team works closely with your management staff to ensure every detail is covered.
From the initial site walk to the first night of collection, we manage the entire process. We provide all necessary communication materials to ensure residents are fully informed and prepared for the new amenity, leading to high adoption rates and a positive reception.
- Site Walk & Logistical Review: Our operations team tours the property to map out the most efficient collection routes and identify any specific logistical needs, such as access codes, elevator use protocols, and designated parking for our service vehicles.
- Management Onboarding: We meet with your property management team to establish communication protocols, set up access to our reporting dashboard, and finalize the service-level agreement (SLA).
- Resident Communication Phase: Two weeks before launch, we provide your team with door hangers, email templates, and welcome letters explaining the service, schedule, and guidelines for all residents.
- Service Launch: Our uniformed porters begin the first night of collection, with our management team on-call to ensure everything runs smoothly. Daily reports begin flowing to your property manager the very next day.
Exception Handling & Daily Reporting
Our service is built on a foundation of proactive communication and transparent reporting. We provide property managers with daily insights into the waste collection process, including any exceptions or resident non-compliance.
Our proprietary reporting software allows our porters to document violations, such as early or late set-outs, improper bags, or oversized items, with time-stamped photos. These reports are delivered directly to the property manager's inbox each morning, providing the necessary documentation to enforce community policies and maintain a clean environment. This system ensures accountability and gives you a complete operational picture.
