Rumor has it we're closed!

DON'T BELIEVE RUMORS!

After 68 years of business don't you think we'd notify our customers if we were closing?

Bumps in the road happen to the best businesses out there, especially while being in business as long as we have. New employees will be hired. New equipment will get bought. New phone systems are being installed.

We appreciate those of you that have been patient, kind and supportive throughout these " Bumps."

Hello Monday 5/11/2026,

We apologize for the inconvenience. We are down several drivers and having
some truck issues on top of that.

Frontier Communications has an OUTAGE going on that has shut our phones down since Monday 4/27/2026.

The A route is without a driver. The B driver injured himself 7 weeks ago and is still waiting to be released to come back to work. We have just a couple guys and one supervisor trying to get
to everyone they possibly can every day. The substitutes are trying, but mistakes happen.

What we thought would get accomplished over the weekend did not all get completed. We still have portions of the B4, A5, & B5 to be done today.

We'll get started on the D1 route today also.

The A1 & B1 won't be done today, but will be started tomorrow.

Contact us by email at [email protected] or go to our website burrisdisposal.com and there's a contact form submission as well.

Thank you,
The Burris Staff

Everyone OUR PHONE IS INVOLVED IN A FRONTIER OUTAGE! We have no control, we're at the mercy of Frontier Communications at this point.

Yes, we've looked into cellular, but because of our location no one will guarantee service.

We've asked for a message " can't be done during an outage," we've asked, can they be rolled to another number, "not during an outage," we've asked can they be busy instead of just ringing, " not during an outage." WE'VE done everything we can do.

So NO we haven't gone out of business and NO we're not just ignoring your calls.

Please be patient, please be KIND!

Our web person does not have access to customer accounts after business hours, so route questions can't be answered until the next business day.

We're still without a phone! Sometime today is what they say! We've all heard that before, lol.

It's possible there are still customers on the B1, A2, B2, C2, and R2 waiting for their trash to be picked up, we're coming, the when is the question, as we're short 2 drivers, and down 2 trucks. We're trying our best, we still have drivers and trucks working long hours trying to get to as many customers as possible, your patience and continued support are much appreciated 😊
