Garbage User Fee Information/ Appeal Form

The Garbage User Fee (GUF) is the fee that residents pay for their garbage and recycling collection. Only those residents that pay the garbage user fee can use the solid waste services offered by the City. Single family dwellings are charged $11.00 per month on their water bill. Multiple family dwellings ranging from two to four units are charged $22.00 per month. Dwellings with more than four living units, as well as businesses, must use a private hauler. They cannot use City services, and must provide proof of their private hauler to the Solid Waste Department. The proof can be a copy of their most recent bill, or a copy of the contract.

Residents who choose to stop using City solid waste services for any reason, must fill out a garbage user fee appeals form. Some common reasons to fill out an appeals form would be that the dwelling is vacant, occupants are leaving on winter vacation, the service address is being overcharged, etc.
