Trash Can Moving
Hi BP Family,
I am exploring the short term rental market and was planning to self manage the property. One question that keeps coming up is how to handle the trash cans? I don't want my guests having to show up to a home with a full and smelly trash can that hasn't been dumped in the past week. How are other short term operators handling this issue? Thanks for all the insights!
Thanks,
Ryan

We also pay for a “walk up” service from the local trash company. It’s $10 extra per month and totally worth it. Just call your company and see what they offer.
No need to burden the guests with this, or ask your cleaners (since their turnover schedule might not align with trash day).
