Why Trash Caddie
Why Trash Caddie for DMV Property Managers
Property managers throughout Maryland, Washington DC and Virginia choose Trash Caddie because we are locally owned and based in Annapolis — the people who plan your route are the same people who answer your calls. There is no national call center, no ticket queue and no waiting for a regional office to approve a simple request. When you call 443-214-8070, you reach a decision maker with direct owner access on every account.
Our professional uniformed team runs the same communities on the same nights, every week. Reliability is the entire product: we do not miss nights, and when a unit is skipped or a bag is torn, the office hears about it from us the same night — not from a resident the next morning. Every property gets a dedicated account manager who knows the site, the compactor layout and the residents' patterns.
Setup is simple. We walk the property, build the route map, deliver resident rollout materials — door hangers, set-out instructions and move-in packet inserts — and launch on an agreed date. Your leasing team never writes a notice. Beyond consistency, valet trash is a proven NOI increase for properties and a genuine resident retention tool: residents consistently rank doorstep collection among the most valued community amenities, and it gives your leasing team a real marketing advantage during tours.
Finally, one vendor simplicity: valet trash, bulk trash removal, pet waste cleanup and can cleaning under one contract, one contact and one invoice. Fewer vendors to coordinate means fewer gaps in coverage and a cleaner property year-round.
Asset Performance
How Valet Trash Increases NOI for DMV Properties
Net operating income — NOI — is the number every multifamily owner watches, because it directly drives asset value. Small, recurring revenue streams with low operating cost move NOI faster than almost any other lever available to a property manager, and valet trash is one of the most reliable of those streams.
The amenity fee structure is straightforward. The resident pays a monthly amenity fee for doorstep collection, the property remits the service portion to Trash Caddie, and the property keeps the spread. For most communities the net cost of the program is zero — and frequently positive — making valet trash one of the few amenities that pays for itself from day one. We do not publish pricing because every program is built around the property's door count and service schedule, but the structure is designed so ownership sees a clear line-item gain.
Investors evaluating a DMV acquisition treat valet trash as a marker of a well-operated asset: it signals amenitized income, disciplined vendor management and high resident satisfaction. The resident retention impact is real — residents who rely on doorstep collection renew at higher rates — and the operational savings compound: reduced maintenance costs from cleaner breezeways and compactor areas, pest reduction savings from nightly bag removal, and fewer staff hours spent policing dumpster overflow.
Presenting the program to ownership is easy when the numbers are framed correctly: recurring amenity revenue, higher retention, lower grounds and pest expense, and a cleaner property that photographs better for marketing. Call 443-214-8070 and we will model the NOI impact for your specific property.
Service Area
DMV Communities We Serve
In Maryland we serve multifamily communities across the Chesapeake region. Anne Arundel County is our home county and we cover every city in it: Annapolis, Shady Side, Deale, Churchton, West River, Galesville, Tracys Landing, Friendship, Harwood, Davidsonville, Edgewater, Mayo, Riva, Arnold, Severna Park, Pasadena, Glen Burnie, Odenton, Gambrills, Crofton, Millersville, Crownsville, Severn and Lothian. Beyond Anne Arundel we serve Calvert County communities like Prince Frederick, Solomons and Chesapeake Beach; Prince George's County centers including Bowie, Laurel and Upper Marlboro; and Charles County communities such as Waldorf and La Plata. Along the corridor we cover Laurel, College Park and Greenbelt — plus every apartment, condo and townhome community in between.
In Washington DC our crews run neighborhoods across all four quadrants: Capitol Hill, Columbia Heights, Petworth, Shaw, Navy Yard, Anacostia, Brookland, NoMa, H Street and Union Market, Adams Morgan, Dupont Circle, Georgetown and Foggy Bottom. If your community is in the District, we serve it — all DC neighborhoods, from large institutional properties near the waterfront to mid-rise communities in the residential core.
In Northern Virginia we cover Arlington's major villages — Ballston, Clarendon, Court House, Rosslyn, Crystal City, Pentagon City and Columbia Pike — along with Alexandria, from Old Town's historic blocks to Del Ray's garden apartment communities.

Property Types
Valet Trash for Every Property Type
Apartment complexes are our core business: five-night doorstep collection keeps breezeways and dumpster pads clean and gives leasing teams an amenity residents actually use. Condominium communities benefit from the same consistency, with collection windows coordinated around association rules and common-area standards. Townhome developments get curbside-style convenience without the mess of individual cans left at the curb all week.
Student housing sees heavy turnover and high-volume trash nights; scheduled valet service keeps corridors clear during move-in and finals seasons. Senior living communities value the safety benefit most — residents never carry bags across dark parking lots. Military housing communities rely on our uniformed, accountable crews who understand base-adjacent protocols. And mixed-use residential properties get one coordinated program that keeps residential corridors clean without disrupting retail tenants below.
Whatever the property type, the benefit is the same: cleaner common areas, happier residents and a program that runs itself. Call 443-214-8070 to talk through your community's layout.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is valet trash service?
Valet trash is doorstep waste collection for multifamily communities. Residents place properly bagged household trash outside their door during a set window on scheduled nights, and our uniformed team collects from every participating unit and hauls it to the community compactor or dumpster. It replaces the nightly walk across a dark parking lot and keeps breezeways, corridors and dumpster pads clean.
Which communities does Trash Caddie serve?
We serve multifamily communities only: apartment complexes, condominium associations, townhome HOAs, student housing, senior living, military housing and mixed-use residential throughout Maryland, Washington DC and Virginia. We do not service single family homeowners.
How many nights per week is service provided?
Five nights per week is the standard valet trash schedule and it is what most communities choose. Three-night schedules are available for smaller or lower-density properties. Bulk trash removal, pet waste cleanup and can cleaning run on their own agreed schedules.
Do you handle bulk items like furniture and mattresses?
Yes. Bulk trash removal covers furniture, mattresses, appliances, electronics and move-out debris staged in approved areas. Communities can schedule recurring bulk days or request on-demand pickups during heavy turnover months.
How do property managers get started?
Call 443-214-8070 or email info@trashcaddieco.com and we schedule a complimentary property walk. We count doors, map collection routes, review compactor access and return a written service plan with a proposed start date and full resident rollout materials.
Is Trash Caddie locally owned?
Yes. Trash Caddie is locally owned and operated from Annapolis, Maryland. The people who plan your route are the people who answer your calls, which is why our service consistency looks different from national vendors.
