Garbage Rates Rising In Century

November 21, 2012

Century residents will soon see a slight increase on their garbage bills.

The rate for residential service will increase 32-cents, from $15.38 to $15.70 per month for household waste. The town is passing along a 2.7 percent rate increase from Allied Waste, the town’s service provider. Under their contract with Century, Allied is allowed to periodically adjust rates based upon increases in the Consumer Price Index.

Commercial garbage customers in Century that utilize Allied Waste  will see an increase of 2.7 percent.

    .32 Cents. I just pray that more people will not burn plastic waste in those awful homemade incinerators (55gal drum). When I smell plastic burning, I know that my cheapskate millionaire neighbor is at it again.

    I understand that his health is not good. After breathing that stuff for years it should come as no surprise.

    Just wait for the 4-cent fuel tax to kick in…….something else to pass along.
