The people who call Cooper most often are other tradesmen. A Boston general contractor wrote in a 2023 review that the company had handled all their disposal and demo for ten years; a carpentry business said the same year that the containers turn up on time, every time, keeping their jobs rolling. That is the shape of this outfit — a dumpster in the driveway, a crew that clears the mess, and an owner who picks up the phone. Cooper Property & Waste Solutions runs from Braintree and covers Boston and the South Shore. Its site says the business started in 1989 as Dave's Rubbish Removal, founded by David Cooper and renamed when it passed to his son; Bryan W. Cooper runs it now. Dumpster rental and junk removal are the core, with select demolition and rental-property management alongside. The clean-out work draws the most detailed accounts. In a 2023 review, a customer described homes of hoarders cleared "often under horrendous circumstances." Another from 2023 described an apartment clean-out during a very difficult time for the family. A third that year covered interior demolition where the crew took down walls by hand so nothing inside got damaged. In a November 2025 review, a homeowner had window sashes they had replaced themselves hauled off after the local recycling center would not take them. Pricing comes up well in the older accounts: a 2023 reviewer filled a house clean-out dumpster to the top and paid nothing extra after removal, and a 2022 reviewer was quoted a price for the dumpster plus gas and paid exactly that. Two things to check. In a February 2025 review, a customer rated one star, saying they paid for a 12-foot dumpster, received an 8-foot one, and were refused a refund of the difference — so get the container size on the paperwork and agree what happens if the wrong one arrives. Separately, the company also manages rental property, and a November 2024 one-star review comes from a tenant describing 11 months in a unit without proper heat. On Google the average is 4.7 across 26 ratings, while the Angi and HomeAdvisor profiles show 5.0 across 65, and most of the written accounts date from 2019 to 2023. For a house clean-out, a renovation dumpster, or interior demo where the rest of the house has to survive intact, this is a second-generation outfit the local trades keep calling back. Get the dumpster size, the weight allowance and the pickup date onto the invoice before it lands.
Great people the guy that walked in was so dexty
Cooper Waste gave me a great price and hauled away a bunch of window sashes that replaced myself and couldn’t take to my local recycling center. Don’t bother with the flashy junk hauling companies that spend all their money on marketing…one of those companies quoted me a price that was more than double what Cooper Waste charged me.
Avoid this company at all costs. Their service is disappointing, their pricing is outrageous, and they’re completely dishonest. We paid for a 12 foot dumpster but received an 8 foot one instead. And they refused to refund the price difference. Absolutely not worth the money.
I had a horrible experience staying at Bryan's property at 124 Merrymount Rd. I lived there for 11 months and never had proper heating. For most of the time I lived there, my room—and some of my housemates' rooms—had no heat at all. If we are lucky and there's actually heat, everytime I turned on the radiator, dirty water would leak out of the prehistoric radiators and make a big mess in my room damaging some of my stuff. And the radiator would make such loud noises that it was impossible to sleep. I either wouldn't be able to fall asleep or woke up repeatedly during the night due to the noise level. Some other tenants in the house faced the no heating issue as well. He called an incompetent and rude plumber a few times, seemingly to give the impression he was addressing the issue. But he did nothing meaningful to resolve it. One time the rude plumber literally walked into my room and all he did was turning off the little valve and said problem solved. What a joke. The problem was already there when I first moved in and when I kindly asked him to fix it, he said he'd fix it before winter arrives but he never did. I kept kindly asking him to do something about it countless times, but he chose to completely ignore me and pretend there's no issue. When I bring up the issue, he would give me attitude, become angry, dismissive, and wouldn't even let me explain. He'd constantly interrupt me mid-sentence, refusing to listen—such disrespectful behavior. He kept saying something like "I've been doing this job for 546145 years I know what I'm doing" well clearly not Imagine paying over $1,000 a month for a small room and not even having heat during the winter. I had no choice but to turn off the radiator manually and use an electric heater throughout the fall and winter. But guess what? He wouldn't let tenants use an electric heater so I had to use the heater hiddenly. Otherwise I'd freeze to death. When I finally managed to leave the house, oh what a relief! I will attach a few pics so people would know what I had to deal with the entire winter and hopefully not choose to stay in his property! Half the time I come home when the radiator is on, I'd find my room just like in the pictures.
Cooper Property & Waste Solution is the only company I use for all of my project with Hastings Carpentry. Brian and Michele are super responsive and the crew delivers on time, every time, to keep my jobs rolling. There is the best in the area.
