Eight zones
Each one generates a different kind of tote.
Where a container comes from tells us most of what we need to know about it before we see it. Hunts Point means food oils; Carlstadt means fragrance; Hauppauge means aerospace solvent.
| Zone | Drive from Astoria | Typical lead time | What it generates |
|---|---|---|---|
| Astoria & Queens | 0–25 minutes | Same day or next day | Our home borough — same-day collection is routine here. |
| Brooklyn | 25–45 minutes | Same week, usually 48 hours | Sunset Park to East Williamsburg, across the bridges daily. |
| Manhattan | 20–40 minutes | Same week, scheduled off-peak | Building services, kitchens, labs and print — small lots, tricky access. |
| The Bronx | 20–35 minutes | Same week | Hunts Point and the South Bronx industrial corridor. |
| Staten Island | 45–70 minutes | Weekly scheduled run | Marine terminals, fuel and the West Shore industrial belt. |
| Long Island | 45–110 minutes | 2–4 days | Nassau and Suffolk — aerospace, plating, agriculture and marine. |
| Westchester | 35–70 minutes | 2–4 days | Yonkers to Peekskill — labs, pharma-adjacent and municipal. |
| Northern New Jersey | 35–75 minutes | 2–4 days | The chemical corridor — Newark, Elizabeth, Carlstadt, Paterson. |
How far from Astoria will you actually travel?
Roughly 75 miles, which covers all five boroughs, Nassau and Suffolk, Westchester County and northern New Jersey. Beyond that we will still quote, but the load has to be big enough to justify the drive and we will say so plainly.
Is collection free in my area?
From eight units upward, yes, anywhere in the radius. Below eight we consolidate you into an existing run for your zone rather than sending a truck for a handful of containers, and we tell you the trip charge before booking.
How quickly can you get to me?
Queens is usually same-day or next-day because the yard is in Astoria. Brooklyn, the Bronx and Manhattan are typically same-week. Long Island, Westchester, Staten Island and northern New Jersey run on consolidated loops, normally two to four days out.
What do you need to know before booking a collection?
Dock height, gate width, whether there is a forklift on site, any street or loading-window restrictions, and whether the totes are drained. Five minutes on those five points prevents an aborted collection, which is the costliest thing in this trade.
Do you deliver as well as collect?
Yes. Deliveries run on the same zone loops under our own DOT authority, so a purchase and a collection at the same address are usually a single truck movement rather than two.
Tell us your address and dock situation.
Height, gate width, forklift or not. Five minutes on this saves an aborted collection, which is the most expensive thing that happens in this business.
