1. Transparent Pricing & Fee Structures

Are fuel fees, environmental compliance charges, and container delivery costs clearly listed before you sign up?

At LePage, we believe you should know exactly what you’re paying for every month before you sign the service agreement.

2. Service Rate Stability

Does your bill double after a year?

LePage focuses on long-term satisfaction over short-term gimmicks.

3. Response Time & Local Accountability

If a can gets missed or damaged, how many days does it take to get the issue resolved?

Since LePage & Sons is based in Bethel, MN, we can answer questions and dispatch support immediately.

4. Route Consistency & Driver Retention

Do you get a new driver every month?

Driver turnover at big companies leads to missed houses and poor service. LePage’s drivers know their routes inside and out and deliver reliable service every week.

5. Economic Community Impact

Where do your dollars go?

When you pay a national conglomerate, revenue leaves the state. When you choose LePage & Sons, your dollars support local jobs and infrastructure.

6. Proven Track Record

Does the company have a proven history of reliability and stability in the local community?

LePage & Sons has served local families and businesses in Minnesota for over a quarter of a century.

Local businesses rely on their customers to spread the word about their services. So, when you tell your friends, family, and neighbors about your experience with LePage & Sons, we want to make sure you know we appreciate you.
