Other Policies
Is Your Invoice Being Paid by a Third Party? We have noticed there are businesses remitting our customers’ payments owed for waste collection services. These businesses collect from the customer the amount owed on the invoice and charge an additional fee for remitting the invoiced amount to us. Please be advised that we do not endorse, authorize or approve this practice. These businesses do not always inform us of which account to apply the payments, and they sometimes provide incorrect account information, making it impossible for us to properly credit your account. Any errors, intentional misconduct, miscommunication, lack of communication or other problems arising from the use of such businesses are at your risk. Why take a chance and why pay more? Use one of our convenient payment options listed above.
When to Pay Your Bill: Your payment is due when you receive your bill. If we do not receive your payment within 30 days from the date of the statement, your account will be considered past due. If we stop your service for non-payment, you must pay the past due amount and a service deposit before service is reinstated. Residential service customers will also be charged a redelivery fee if c removed due to non-payment.
Insufficient Funds: Any payment returned to us for insufficient funds will be subjected to a bad debt fee not to exceed $25.00 for the first returned payment and $35.00 for each subsequent returned payment pursuant to California civil code 1719(a).
Vacation Credit Policy: Residential customers are eligible for vacation credit two (2) times each calendar year. You must request a minimum of four(4) weeks of continuous stop of service and up to three (3) months. You must notify us at least one week in advance before the vacation stop occurs and all services will be affected. We will credit you for a vacation period of a minimum of two (2) weeks to a maximum of three (3) months.
