About this company
ARLO Environmental Inc. operates out of Amarillo, Texas, combining asbestos abatement, mold remediation, and waste management under one company. Their primary identity is environmental abatement — asbestos removal is the lead service on their website — but they also run a residential and commercial trash pickup and dumpster rental operation that generates most of their Google review volume.
What stands out is the unusual service combination. Most mold remediation companies do not also run dumpster and waste hauling services. ARLO does both, which means they can handle debris removal in-house on abatement jobs rather than subcontracting it. They refer mold and asbestos testing to third-party consultants rather than doing it themselves, which reduces the conflict of interest that comes with companies that both test and remediate.
The company is locally owned in Amarillo and serves both the Amarillo and Lubbock markets, roughly 120 miles apart. Their tagline is "Texas Abatement, Remediation, and Trash Services," which captures the breadth of what they do. They use HEPA-filtered vacuums for asbestos work and describe a standard containment-and-removal process on their website.
Their 4.7-star rating across 30 Google reviews has no negative reviews in the last 18 months. That is a clean record, though the review count is modest and most reviews reference trash and dumpster services rather than mold or asbestos work.

Review consensus
Customer service dominates the praise. Amber is named repeatedly for making signups easy, following through on promises, and answering questions. Larry is praised alongside Amber for going above and beyond. Daniel is called out by name for being accommodating on roll-off dumpster timing. Multiple reviewers mention switching from competitors (particularly Waste Wranglers) and finding ARLO cheaper with more reliable weekly pickup. Bob Herndon, a Local Guide with 166 reviews, updated his review after a year to confirm continued satisfaction.
0 found across 30 total reviews at 4.7★. No negative reviews found in the last 18 months. The company has a clean recent record across all 30 reviews at 4.7 stars.
The review profile skews heavily toward ARLO's waste management and dumpster rental side. Of the reviews with text, the majority reference trash pickup, dumpster delivery, or roll-off containers. Only a handful reference asbestos or mold work. This means the 4.7-star rating reflects satisfaction with their hauling operation more than their abatement services. Buyers hiring ARLO for mold or asbestos work should weight this accordingly.
Larry (customer service role — positive, praised for going above and beyond). Amber (customer service/operations — positive, named in multiple reviews for easy onboarding, follow-through, and responsiveness). Daniel (dumpster delivery — positive, praised for flexibility on timing and friendliness).
ARLO has a spotless recent review record, but almost all of that feedback is about trash and dumpster service. If you are hiring them for mold remediation, ask for references from past remediation clients specifically. Ask for Amber when you call — she is the name reviewers mention most for responsive communication.
Keep in mind
- ARLO does both mold inspection and mold remediation. Even though they refer lab testing to outside consultants, the company that scopes your job is the same one billing for the removal. Get an independent assessment before committing to remediation.
- Most of their Google reviews are about trash pickup and dumpster rental, not mold or asbestos work. You will find very little public feedback specifically about their remediation quality.
- Their website says they are "not certified to provide testing" for mold and instead refer you to third-party consultants. Ask who those consultants are and whether they are truly independent.
- They claim to serve both Amarillo and Lubbock, which are about 120 miles apart. Confirm lead times and whether the same crew handles both markets.
