## The honest read

Al's Rubbish & Container Service describes itself on its website as a Sutton, Massachusetts rubbish removal company offering weekly residential trash pickup, roll-off dumpster rentals, junk car removal, clean-outs and recycling across Worcester County. The site says Al Gerard started it with one truck and 15 dumpsters after leaving a district manager job at Friendly's Ice Cream, and that the company celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2021.

A recent customer said 3 guys showed up for a house clean-out 24 hours after the call, and that they swept up when done. A recent customer who has used them a few times for a dumpster at the house said booking is easy and that they give all the info up front about what is allowed, though the price ran a bit higher than some others around the Milford/Hopedale area. A 2026 customer said Colby, Nate and Mike removed a loveseat and piano for half the price of other movers in the area, and that Colby arranged to come out the next day.

A 2025 customer said they cleared out a couple of units tenants had left full of furniture and trash. A 2025 customer rented a 20-yard bin for a backyard deck tear-down and said it arrived right on time. A 2024 customer described an estate clean-out of roughly 60 yards that included a giant heavy piano. A recent Nextdoor post from Sutton named the company alongside Pratt Trucking in Oxford and reported "great experiences with both companies." Its BBB page shows an A+ grade and accreditation.

A recent customer gave one star and wrote "Parks in the middle of the roads and sits on phone." A 2023 customer said Al asked whether there was anything unique in their mother's estate he might be interested in, called the conversation inappropriate, and said they would not hire the company. A 2022 customer gave one star for "Rude truck drivers."

**Strengths:**
- Quick clean-out — a recent customer said 3 guys came 24 hours later
- Clear dumpster rules — a recent customer said they explain what's allowed up front
- A piano removal — a 2026 customer paid half other movers' price

**Concerns:**
- Parking in the road — a recent customer gave one star over it
- A higher price — a recent customer found it pricier than some nearby
- An estate conversation — a 2023 customer called Al's question inappropriate

**Where sources disagree:**
- The company's site says it celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2021, while its BBB profile gives a business start date of 8/15/2002.
