Island Trash Pick-Up?

RobertsCove0 · 02-03-2014, 10:16 AM

Just out of curiosity, would any of you Island-Goers be interested in Trash pick-up on Monday mornings in the summer. I have a couple of pontoon boats and was wondering if that would be an appreciated service. Once or twice a summer we could also pickup larger items.

We have thought it would be a good service, I guess it would come down to cost. The larger item idea is great too as we always have something we don't want to drag onto the boat. It's just typically a balance between costs and doing it, if the costs were right, it would be easy.

We would be interested, especially if you can haul away larger items. We're on Bear Island, cove behind Shepard Island.

Why kidding? I have wished for pizza delivery for years.
There were a couple of young men with a pontoon boat doing trash pick-up in our area ( Tuftonboro) I don't know if they are still working. They always had customers!
They were invaluable when we had to replace large appliances on the island.

It would be particularly nice to know who is willing to take big items. In renovating our place, we have had many boat loads hauled, but the kids that did it are now away at school and no longer in business. Nice to have a replacement.

I would love to have weekly trash pickup. However Roberts Cove is the other end of the lake from Bear. Will you go that far?

Yes we would be willing to pick up from all islands. Especially if it was larger items once or twice a summer weekly trash pickup would probably have to be confined to rattlesnake and all of Alton, Wolfeboro. 603-515-9032. Thanks Sean
