| - Scott Waste & Recycling Service, LLC. was one of the subcontractors that didn't get paid by a general contractor (Shane Salyers of Salyers & Sons) when he abandoned our renovation (and kept the money we paid). Scott Waste's owner, Scott, said that Shane's credit card was declined, but Scott continued to empty the dumpster several times (?) and run up the bill until Shane abandoned the project and we called to have the dumpster removed. Scott tried to convince us to pay $1050 and called us "pathetic" and threatened to leave the dumpster blocking our driveway indefinitely, but instead the next week his company came and dumped the contents of the full 15 yard dumpster on our driveway, in the rain! Not Cool.
His service agreement was with Shane Salyers, and we already paid Shane a ridiculous amount of money, including $1800 for dumpsters. We have no idea whether Shane paid Scott. Based on the contents of the dumpster we doubt that it was emptied several times; maybe once. Instead of doing the right thing, cutting his losses, collecting the dumpster, and pursuing proper legal action against the contractor he had an agreement with (just like we have had to do), he took his frustration out on us. Shane should have paid Scott with the money that we gave him and we are sorry if he didn't, but if Scott isn't able to collect from Shane, he's lost less than $2K. We have lost many times that amount. Again, not cool.
