Trashcan cleaning service in the Phoenix Metro area.
Happy Cans is a residential trashcan cleaning service. Our truck visits your residence on-site to clean your garbage bins after they have been emptied by the city the day after trash day. Learn more about the service.
The service area includes the entire Phoenix Metro Area from San Tan Valley to Peoria and Buckeye and everywhere inbetween.
As soon as we can upgrade the truck with a hyperdrive, we will also include certain neighborhoods in Alpha Centari. (Although that will probably be at a much later date. Sorry Alpha Centarians)
Family-owned & operated,

Ted, the owner of Happy Cans, was a medical sales representative for over 15 years and did a pretty dang good job of it too, to the point where he was comfortable starting a new business as an independent rep with no company paid medical insurance, benefits or support. This was a move he made in January of 2020. However, in March of 2020 the COVID-19 global pandemic caused hospitals to restrict visitors into their facilities – this even included medical sales reps, making medical sales virtually impossible. So, a new stream of income was needed in order for Ted to support his family.
In May of 2020 Ted’s sons began cleaning trashcans with a little hand-held power washer as a summer job. Since Ted wasn’t in the hospitals doing medical sales, he helped out, a lot. Ted soon realized this is a service that people needed on a regular basis. This eventually evolved into what is now Happy Cans, with regular service routes using a state-of-the-art truck with power jets especially made for cleaning residential trashcans. Since the business inception Ted has also added equipment to clean commercial dumpsters and trash chutes.
