Question 1

How much does trash can cleaning cost?

Accepted Answer

A one-time cleaning is $35 for the first cart and $20 for each additional cart. The monthly plan is $20 per cart, and the quarterly plan is $28 per cart. Extra carts cost less than the first because the expensive part of a visit is the drive, not the wash.

Question 2

What cities do you serve?

Accepted Answer

SparkBin serves houses in Wentzville, O'Fallon, St. Charles, St. Peters and Lake Saint Louis, Missouri, all in St. Charles County. If you are not sure your street is on the route, send us your address and we will tell you the same day.

Question 3

Do I need to be home?

Accepted Answer

No. Leave the cart at the curb on your normal collection day, the same as always. We come after the city truck, wash the cart and put it back where we found it. You do not need to move or rinse anything.

Question 4

How do you clean the cans?

Accepted Answer

We wash them at the curb with pressurized water heated to about 200°F and a biodegradable cleaning solution. Inside, outside, the lid and the rim. The heat is what kills the bacteria and removes the smell, not the soap.

Question 5

Do you haul the dirty water away?

Accepted Answer

No, and we will not tell you otherwise. Our unit does not capture the wash water; it stays where the cart is washed. We use as little as the job needs and a biodegradable solution. Some services in this industry claim to haul the water off-site, so it is worth asking them how.

Question 6

Is there a contract?

Accepted Answer

No. There is no term commitment, no sign-up fee and no cancellation fee. You can cancel any time by phone or email, and we do not charge you for anything after the period you already paid for.

Question 7

What happens if the city does not empty my cart?

Accepted Answer

We cannot wash a cart that still has trash in it. If that happens we call or text you the same day. If the missed visit was our mistake, we come back at no charge.
