Garbage Hauler: Republic Services

Returned Mail/Notice Concerns?:

Stated Reason for Appeal (if given): Property owner stated that they have been charged for three carts when they have only had two carts at the property. On August 12, 2021 Republic Services picked up two 64-gal from the property and returned with 35-gal cart with weekly pick up. As of that date, the property only had a 96 and 35-gal with weekly pick up. However the account was still being charged for a 96-gal cart and two 64-gal carts.

Staff Comments: Hauler records confirm that as on 8/12/2021 the two 64-gal carts at the property were picked up and replaced with on 35-gal cart with weekly service. However they did continue to charge them for one 96-gal and two 35-gal carts. As a result, the property owner short paid the Q4 2021 (incorrect) invoice in the amount of $132.90. Since the total amount that the property owner should have been charged for a 96-gal and a 35-gal was $170.22, staff is recommending reducing the assessment to $37.32. This is the difference between what the property owner paid and what was owed for the service level provided.
