Milley Trucking

Milley Trucking is the trash and dumpster company Chatham-area homeowners have called for nearly a century. The company says it started in 1928, when Clifford Milley began hauling out of a Main Street Chatham backyard with a pickup truck and a stake body; his son Timothy later grew it into a fleet of purpose-built garbage trucks and hook-lift dumpster trucks, and today grandson Graeme Milley runs day-to-day operations. It's family-owned across three generations, and the company positions itself as the local alternative to the "corporate" regional haulers serving Cape Cod. The work itself is straightforward: weekly residential and commercial trash pickup, plus dumpster rentals sized for renovation debris, demolition cleanouts and garage or basement junk removal, across Chatham, Harwich, Orleans and Brewster. Ten Google reviews between January 2024 and May 2026 are all five stars, and the praise reads as specific rather than boilerplate. One customer recounts a driver who tracked down car keys she'd accidentally thrown in the recycling bin and personally dropped them back at her house. Others describe switching from a regional hauler and finding Milley both more affordable and more personable, and a couple mention using the company for years, across both routine pickup and roll-off containers for bigger jobs like a demo or cleanout. There isn't a documented complaint anywhere in its review history, which is unusual for a company with this much tenure. What isn't published online is pricing or contract terms, so it's worth asking directly about rates and container sizes before booking. For a Cape Cod homeowner who wants a small, locally run outfit rather than a national waste company — for ongoing weekly trash service or a dumpster for a renovation or cleanout — Milley Trucking is a well-established, consistently well-reviewed call.
