About Us | Curbie Sanitation | Chatham County, GA

Curbie Sanitation’s story began in 1961, when Edward and Joan Boaen founded Boaen’s Sanitary Service in Savannah, Georgia. For over six decades, we’ve been a steadfast part of the community, providing reliable trash pickup and waste management to generations of local families. Our roots run deep in unincorporated Chatham County, with a proud legacy of multi-generational family ownership and neighborhood trust. The transition to the Curbie name marked a pivotal moment in our journey, embracing modern curbside collection while honoring our heritage of personalized, high-touch service. Today, Curbie Sanitation continues to serve neighborhoods like Georgetown, Isle of Hope, Montgomery, and Wilmington Island with the same unwavering dependability and neighborly care that have defined us since day one. As one of Savannah’s longest-standing family-owned waste company, our mission is simple: deliver professional, transparent, and respectful service while maintaining the traditions that set us apart from national competitors.

At Curbie Sanitation, our story is written every week—on every route, at every driveway, and with every customer interaction. Our leadership, including Clayton Thurlow, brings decades of operational expertise and digital innovation to ensure seamless service for Savannah families. We’re proud to be the local alternative to impersonal national haulers, focusing on transparent pricing, and friendly, respectful customer support. Our drivers deliver more than trash and recycling—they bring a sense of community, greeting customers with a smile. Our service tiers, including premium backyard pickup, are tailored for neighborhoods with strict HOA standards, accessibility needs, or busy lifestyles. We operate with integrity and honor local traditions. Our story is one of stability, accountability, and the belief that a waste company can be a true community partner.
