Dec. 5, 2011 - PRLog -- In Wilson county Tennessee there is a growing concern with the amount of trash being left to blow in and around the streets and farms of Lascassas, Tennessee. It is just not feasible for the larger companies to offer residential trash pick up as the homes are spread so far apart and driveways can go on for miles.

Convenience centers other wise know as " the dump" by locals are anything but convenient.  On average they are located  5 to 15 miles from many homes and as funds get tighter for the surrounding counties center hours are shorter and items which they take are becoming very limited as well as the amount you can dump.

No one wants to go daily and for many residents it is just not feasible. Cold weather and rising gas prices are becoming a burden on many resulting in trash being  left outside to sit for longer periods of time. Meanwhile weather, mice and other wildlife create havoc as they tear through the trash carrying it off and leaving bags open to blow across the land.

Another growing issue is the amount of seniors and disabled growing in the area. Getting out ,  carrying and loading large bags of trash become not only difficult with age but dangerous in extreme heat as well as in the winter when it is rainy and often icy.

A local resident Cody Bryant reports that trash seen on the sides of the roads in the area has doubled in the last year and states " since the dump no longer takes things such as computers, and TV's folks are driving into our neck of the woods and just throwing them out on the side of the road" .

For years there has not been a solution to this problem and it seems to be getting worse and worse.  In June of 2011 after driving down the road and seeing 3 TVs and a computer Brian and Tammy Barnes knew something needed to be done before the area
they called home turned into a land fill.

After doing some research they realized that this was a growing problem in many places and knew they could help so they started a small local company called Get MY Trash .
"We are able and willing to do what other businesses refuse to do" claims owner Brian Barnes. " We are not above picking that TV up out the ditch and recycling it if it means a cleaner, safer community.  Serving our neighbors is important to us. We know the community is getting older, we know there are many on fixed incomes and there is a definite need for our help. "

Get My Trash  caters especially to the rural customer offering weekly trash pick up.  Uniquely they also offer front door  pick up for the elderly and the disabled and those with long drive ways.  Recycling is very important to the Barnes so every customer is given free recycling services and Yes they will come and get that old TV and computer.
One other thing they say they offer that no other trash service does is a money back guarantee.  Saying your trash will be picked up on time, every time with nothing left behind or you get a month free.

Knowing times are hard and things can change in an instant for a family they are proud to  offer month to month services with no set up or cancellation fees ever. You can start and stop your service as often as needed. No hassles No questions.  Get My Trash also partners with other local services to offer you a 10% discount for their customers.

 As long as companies continue to refuse to serve the rural areas  this problem will only continue to grow but at least in Wilson County  Get My Trash is doing there part to help the environment, the community, and those neighbors who need assistance
