The buildings
Staten Island buildings and their chutes
Staten Island’s elevator buildings cluster along the North Shore, with older complexes and newer waterfront rentals side by side. Each has its own chute and compactor setup, and we quote each building on its own.

FAQ
Chute cleaning in Staten Island: questions
Do you come out to Staten Island for one building?
Yes. Call (646) 391-7620 with the address, floors and number of chutes. If you manage several buildings on the island, we can schedule them on the same days.
How often should a trash chute be cleaned?
It depends on the building. We recommend cleaning quarterly for hospitals, hotels and heavy-use buildings, twice a year for most apartment buildings, and at least once a year for everything else. NYC rules don’t set a frequency, but they do require chutes to be kept clean, sanitary and free of vermin and odors.

How much does trash chute cleaning cost?
Every building is quoted on its own. The price depends on the number of floors and chutes, whether the chute is pre-war masonry or post-war metal, how long since the last cleaning, access and scheduling, and add-ons like graffiti. Call (646) 391-7620 or send the address and Marshall will price it the same day.
Are you insured?
Yes. Chute Cleaning Division is insured in partnership with Select Exterminating, and we can send a certificate of insurance for your building or management company on request.
