When is my bill due?

Your bill is due upon receipt. Late fees begin to be assessed once balance becomes 30+ days past due of the invoice date.

Do you offer bulk pick up?

Yes! We offer bulk pick ups for many household items. You can view the complete list of accepted items here. 

What type of billing methods do you offer?

Customers can elect to receive their bills via standard US mail, email or both.

My bill includes a fuel recovery fee. What is this fee for?

The fuel surcharge you see on your bill is a fee that all of our residential and commercial customers are paying to help us manage the fluctuating cost of diesel fuel in the Central Atlantic region.  As fuel rates fluctuate, you may see a percentage increase or decrease in that fuel surcharge as we believe in being transparent with our customers and only charging what is absolutely needed to provide a consistent service. The link to the PADD 1B fuel rate can be found here with complete rate history that we reference in determining the recovery fee.

Do you offer oil disposal or recycling?

Unfortunately we do not. Please click here for oil recycling resources available to NY residents.

Do your services include medical waste disposal?

Unfortunately we are not permitted to handle biohazardous or medical waste. Resources related to biohazardous waste can be found here.

Do you offer bulk pickups for non-customers?

Unfortunately we do not. Our bulk pickup service is specifically offered for our residential and commercial clients.

How can I go about disposing of my old TV?

New York State law requires manufacturers to take back unwanted electronics from households, schools and businesses. More information on the program can be found here. Additional local disposal options can be found here.
