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.
