About Us

Rural Garbage Service

Reliable Waste Solutions Since 1958 family-owned, locally run, and trusted for steady pickup, responsive support, and service built for Lancaster County’s rural routes.
For over 65 years, Rural Garbage Service has helped keep Lancaster County clean, safe, and welcoming one stop at a time. We’re proud to be family-owned and locally operated, which means our name is on every route we run and every promise we make.
When you choose a local company, you’re choosing a team that’s invested in the same community you are where reputations matter, relationships last, and doing right by customers is how we’ve stayed in business since 1958. That experience shows in the details: consistent schedules, well-planned routes, and a steady, dependable approach that helps prevent overflow, odors, pests, and he headaches that come with missed service.
Whether you’re a homeowner in Buford, a family in Van Wyck, or a business owner in downtown Lancaster, you deserve waste service that’s simple, predictable, and easy to manage. Because we’re local, we understand the roads, the weather, the driveways, and the day-to-day rhythms of the towns and communities we serve so we can run routes that make sense here, not just on a map.
Our drivers know the back roads and tight turnarounds, and they treat your carts and containers with care. Our office is close by and easy to reach, so if you have a question about your schedule, billing, or a service change, you can talk to someone who can actually help. From weekly residential pickup to ongoing commercial service, we focus on the things that matter most: dependable collection, clear communication, and a cleaner community we’re proud to call home.
