No. JDOT loads from most anywhere on the property — basements, garages, backyards, upper floors, tight doorways. Customers do not need to drag items to the curb, though harder-to-access pickups (stairs, long carries, tight spaces) may factor into the flat-rate quote.

Yes. Every dispatch is recorded with video and audio through body, handheld, mounted, phone, or other operational cameras. Recording is part of how JDOT operates and is not optional.

Yes. Reporting citizens may request that identifying or sensitive details (faces, names, house numbers, license plates, children, personal documents, family photos) be obscured before publication. This is not a final-edit approval process — JDOT retains editorial control over Field Reports. JDOT does not publish children, personal documents, house numbers, license plates, family photos, medical/legal/financial papers, valuables, or exact-address indicators in any case. Field Reports are titled by city and service type, not by address.
JDOT works carefully around walls, doors, floors, driveways, gates, and landscaping. Before work begins, JDOT may document the condition of the work area for the field report. If damage occurs, the work stops, the issue is documented, and the reporting citizen is notified before the job continues. Existing damage, tight access, weak flooring, unstable piles, or items requiring forced removal may affect whether the dispatch can proceed. Full damage policy at /terms#damage.
Contact JDOT before your confirmed dispatch window. If the department is already en route or arrives and cannot access the violation, the dispatch may be rescheduled and a dispatch fee may apply. No work begins until scope, access, and payment are confirmed. Full policy at /terms#cancellation.
JDOT may pause, delay, or reschedule a dispatch for lightning, heavy rain, flooding, extreme heat, unsafe access, or any condition that creates a safety risk. If weather interrupts a job in progress, JDOT secures the work area as best as possible and coordinates the next available dispatch window. Full policy at /terms#weather.
JDOT reserves the right to pause or decline any dispatch involving unsafe access, hazardous materials, biological waste, active pests, unstable structures, or conditions that put the crew, customer, or property at risk. Full policy at /terms#safety.
No. JDOT is a small, locally-owned operation based in Orange Park, Clay County. No franchise overhead, no national call center, no minimum-job upselling — which is how flat-rate pricing stays flat.
