|
Our
Services |
For trash service we provide
a 35-, 60-, or 90-gallon
roll
carts. Although it will be your responsibility to keep it clean,
we maintain the container (unless it is damaged due to misuse) throughout
your service with us. With weekly or
monthly trash service, customers are provided with two recycle tubs.
If within the city limits, customers are provided a 60 gallon yard
debris roll cart. |
Please
don't ask our drivers to empty barrels, well cans, or underground
storage containers. |
|
Where
to Put Your Container |
Most
customers place their garbage cans at the curb, although we are happy
to pick up your can at your house for an additional fee. |
Unless
special arrangements have been made, your collection point should
never require our drivers to enter a garage, building, or navigate
steps. There must not be low hanging obstructions or wires restricting
the driver's access. These restrictions help protect your privacy,
safety, security, and even your pets-and they reduce the risk to our
drivers. A long driveway without clearance, a driveway in poor condition,
or a driveway with an inaccessible passage, means your can must be
placed at the roadside. |
PLEASE
roll carts must always be placed at the roadside. |
|
Extra
Garbage to Pick Up
"Extras" |
Please let us know by calling (503) 656-8403 or
click here, if you want an
pickup on extra bags, cans, or boxes. You will be billed for each extra item on your next
regular bill. |
Extra
trash must be tightly bundled, bagged, or boxed, and it may not weigh
over 40 pounds. Place the extra next to your regular can. |
If
you have a large appliance, furniture or any other large item that
needs to be picked up, please notify our office in advance. You can
call us at (503) 656-8403 or contact us via the web by clicking
here. You will be charged an extra fee for these items on your
next regular bill. |
|
Unacceptable
Materials |
The
following items cannot go in your garbage or recycling containers
under any circumstances: liquid waste, paint, hazardous waste (which
is anything labeled poison or caustic) or any medical sharps. |
|
Missed
Pickups |
If
we inadvertently missed collecting your garbage,
recycling or yard debris, please contact us
as soon as possible by clicking here
or calling us at (503) 656 -8403. This
will let us route your problem to our drivers as quickly as possible. |
If
we missed your pickup, you may be asked to set out the
material for pickup on the next business day. There will be no additional
charge, if the volume is no greater than your normal level of service. |
If
that option isn't convenient, call us to arrange
alternate pickup arrangements. |
We do not give credit for missed
pickups. If you are missed, call (503) 656-8403 or
click here. We will get you picked
up. |
|
Credits |
For vacations or other absences of three or more weeks, let us know in advance
of your regular pick up day and we'll give you a credit for the number
of pick-ups you'll not be using. |
|
Holidays
and Extreme Weather Conditions |
Our
drivers are on the job every weekday except Christmas and New Year's
Day. If these holidays fall on your normal pick up day, set your garbage
out on the next business day, and we'll be there to pick it up. |
Occasionally,
icy or snowy roads make it unsafe for our trucks to be out. In extreme
weather conditions, we may pick up your garbage late in the day-if
the weather improves. Or, if we cannot be there on your regular day,
set your garbage out on the next business day, and weather permitting,
we'll be there to pick it up. |
During
severe weather conditions we ask that you hold your recyclables until
the bad weather has passed. |
|
Changes
in Your Service |
A
change of service will be necessary, for example, if you are moving,
need a different container, or need to change the name on your account.
On our services page you will find several
options for necessary changes. |
Any
request for a change in service, must be made by contacting us via
our web site, by calling us at (503) 656-8403, or by writing us at:

|
Billing
Procedures |
Most residential customers are billed bi-monthly;
the invoice covers the current month and one month in advance.
Residential customers may request monthly billing at any time and
will be automatically assigned monthly billing if delinquent notices
are mailed. Commercial customers are billed monthly, in

are mailed. |

past due amount, after
applying any payments that may have been received. |
Service to delinquent accounts can be
stopped at any time.

if
you subscribe to regular garbage service, and

Trash |
Scattered
trash is everyone's problem. It is unsightly as well as unsanitary.

seem to be the most common culprits, but lately we've had problems
with raccoons and possums. |
