Protest the proposed 44% rate increase and suggest a more modest increase of 15% that includes the addition of residential and business single-stream recycling.
Why is this important?
Allied Waste Services of North America. LLC, d/b/a Republic Services of West Virginia has filed a proposed rate increase of 44% with the Public Service Commission. This proposed increase comes on the tail of a huge decline in service and what appears to be a lack of interest by Republic agents to complaints of trash not being picked up for weeks at a time and requests for refunds due to lack of service. Along with the current recycling services need and desire by a vast number of WV residents, we request that a more modest increase of 15% be instated and residential and business single-stream recycling included in the weekly pickup services.
