About Anderson
How Anderson Became the Electric City
Anderson dates to December 1826, when the Pendleton District was divided into Anderson and Pickens districts. The town that grew up around the new courthouse was incorporated in 1833. City and county take their name from Robert Anderson, a Revolutionary War colonel who fought at Kings Mountain and Cowpens.
William C. Whitner led the formation of the Anderson Water, Light and Power Company, which built a power plant at High Shoals on the Rocky River, four miles from town. Power reached Anderson on May 1, 1895, and a Charleston newspaper dubbed it The Electric City.
Two years later a larger plant was built at Portman Shoals on the Seneca River, and Anderson Cotton Mill became the first cotton mill in the South powered by long-distance transmission lines. In 1911 the state chartered the school that is now Anderson University.

Sorting It Out
A Home Yard or a Managed Space?
Private Yards
If the waste is in a yard that belongs to one household, Residential Service is the fit. The crew scoops the area you agree on, either on a recurring schedule or as a one-time cleanup.
Visits can be twice weekly, weekly, biweekly or monthly. Monthly is for one dog and a yard of up to 1/8 acre, and twice-weekly depends on the address. If you would rather scoop yourself, Bucket Service is the separate option.
Within Residential Service, the main choice is frequency. More dogs or a yard that gets heavy use point toward shorter gaps between visits. With one dog and a yard within the monthly limits, monthly or biweekly may be enough.
Dog Parks and Common Areas
Apartment communities, HOAs, parks and businesses fall under Commercial Service. That covers installing and maintaining pet waste stations, including replacing bags and liners and cleaning around them, plus scooping dog parks and common areas.
A property plan depends on the site and how residents use it. Describe the areas, the stations and roughly how many residents have dogs instead of picking a frequency from a list, and the crew can discuss what makes sense.
If the property already has stations, say how many and whether they need work. If not, ask about installing them along the routes residents walk with their dogs.
Commercial ServiceOdor Treatment for Either
Yard Deodorizing is an add-on to scooping for the areas where dogs spend time. Homeowners can ask about it alongside Residential Service, and you can ask about Wysiwash yard sanitizing as well.
For a property, mention any dog area with a smell problem when you describe the site, along with how often it gets scooped now. The crew can explain the treatment options and whether they apply.
Ask what preparation a treatment needs and when dogs can use the area again. The answers depend on the yard or property.
In-Between Cases
When the Answer Isn't Obvious
Rentals and Small Properties
Some situations sit between the two. You might own a rental home with a fenced yard, or manage a small building with one patch of grass the tenants share. The right service depends on who uses the area and who is responsible for it.
You don't have to work that out alone. Describe the property, who uses the space and how many dogs are involved, and the crew can help you decide between Residential Service and Commercial Service.
If you own the home and a tenant lives there, decide who will be the contact for gate access and scheduling before service starts. That saves confusion later.
If you look after several rental homes, ask the crew how they would handle more than one yard.
Why the Category Matters
The two kinds of service start differently. A home yard is set up around a visit frequency, which you can begin choosing through the quote form. A managed space starts with a conversation about the property, its stations and its busiest areas.
Starting on the right path saves a round of questions later. If you aren't sure, call or email and describe what you have.
If you look after both a home yard and a property, each can be discussed separately, with the service that suits it.
What to Send
A short email to info@thescoopcrew.com is a good place to start. Include the address, the type of property and the areas involved. For a home, add the number of dogs. For a managed space, mention any waste stations already there.
For a single-family yard, you can also go straight to the quote form, which starts with your ZIP code.
Photos help, especially for a common area. A wide picture of the main dog area and one of each station give the crew a clear starting point.
If you aren't sure of the yard size or the exact areas, describe them in your own words. The crew can ask follow-up questions.
