SINGLE TRASH AND RECYCLING HAULER
UPDATE AND INFORMATION
PLEASE NOTICE THESE CHANGES WILL TAKE
EFFECT AND START DATE FOR JANUARY 2019
On
11-29-2018 Property Owners of Tower Point voted to use a single source waste
and recycling hauling service. A 60%
Majority Vote was needed, approximately 75% voted YES to enact this
change. Thanks to all who worked on a
solution! This effort will help reduce
road wear, current and future costs of repairs, traffic, noise, as well as
increased safety and liability for all. Here are the details;
We, as a
Community are reducing large vehicle traffic weekly, by 2/3rds to start.
1. After an extensive bid, and
subsequent rebid process & evaluation, Waste Industries was chosen as the
Single Trash and Recycling Hauler of Choice by Majority.
a. The basic rate will be $63.00 per
Quarter, with the following discounts available;
b. $4.50 discount for Seniors – over 60
years
c. 5% discount if paying in advance
yearly
2. Each Property Owner will be
responsible to contact Waste Industries to set up their account. Contact them at 302-378-5400. Please make sure to state that you are a part
of the Tower Point Community, as you will have this reduced rate extended.
3. They do not charge a separate fuel
surcharge. Their normal $40.00 “cart
fee” – can fee, will be reduced as well to $20.00 for Tower Point. If you already utilize their service, no need
for this fee. If you already have their
service, please ensure to adjust your account to the NEW rate for Tower Point.
4. There is another $1.95 per quarter
paper bill fee. You an avoid that by
signing up for e-billing.
5. Please ask for Single Stream
Recycling information from Waste Industries, so that you are educated and aware
of their policies.
6. Trash Pickup will either by Wednesday or Thursday, with every other week
recycling.
7. Each Property Owner will be
responsible for Canceling and/or Terminating their current service, if other
than Waste Industries. Again, please
contact them for rate adjust if you already are contracted with them.
8. Residents who choose to use their own
private vehicle to haul their waste/recycling, may do so.
9. Any use of a Waste / Recycling
Hauler, other than Waste Industries, will be a violation, as voted on by the TPHOA
Board, and an assessment will be imposed.
Again, we
thank you for your participation, and your attention to this matter, which will
be a benefit to all.
