Good Neighbor Services LLC
As the owner of Good Neighbor Services I am compelled to follow-up to members of the Forum as I have personally liked when business owners do the same.
Rspencer1 was quoting our service cost for rental properties. We do charge extra for those properties for obvious reasons and one clear fact: rental properties are party central! We have seen it all. Folks are on vacation and while many are respectful, many others are not. In rspencer1's case specifically, his trash is left outside the house and nearly each week we arrive animals have got into it and the rest is obvious and left for GNS to remedy. Service is number one and we do not walk away, leave it for the next renters to deal with, or have the homeowner or rental agency fix it.
Rental properties are very time consuming to our staff. In many cases they do not properly separate the trash as we, the homeowner and rental agencies dictate. All GNS customers must recycle to the rules of the Moultonborough Transfer Station. Therefore, the GNS staff is required to do just that. We are held to the same rules at the Transfer Station as any other customer there. No exceptions.
Summer rentals are an extra burden on the staff and equipment and are priced accordingly. We work directly for the homeowner and have their interests in mind. In several instances we have contacted the homeowner about broken outdoor furniture, knocked over retaining walls and stairwells, broken lamps and furniture in the trash, etc. If something looks out of place, the homeowner gets a call. We are the eyes and ears for our absentee homeowners. If it looks awful outside, one can only imagine what happened inside.
Non-rental customers, i.e. those that are weekly, every-other-week, or seasonal, do have rates that are much lower in most cases. Our pricing depends on out time at the stop, on average. Seniors citizens receive our best rates and service, as they should. If you have a five bedroom house and lots of company, then your rate would be on the higher end of the scale.
Thank you for the opportunity.
