Mansion Farm

Hello folks,

This site is not used that much, but I have an item for Mansion Farm residents.

For those who use Waste Industries for collection,  their Jan to Macch 2020 

bill rose $6,  I called, and as I thought, the Mansion Farm community discount 

expired the end of November.

However, all they would tell me is to ask an officer from the Maintenance Corp call them  to discuss reinstating  it?

Fyi,

Ken Betts

I just renewed my contract with trash tech, I paid for entire year with senior rate in 2020 $238.33. Pickups are are Friday.

Hi Ken. I got the discount the last time and didn't keep track of how long it would last. Thanks for telling me they are requesting a call about it. I will make the call and let you know what I find out. You are right that this site isn't used much. I don't find it to be very user friendly as I am never notified when someone writes a message, only if someone responds to a message I post first. I just happened to check the site today and I found your message. Will let you know what I find out about trash collection costs.

Hi Ken, someone started another thread on this...so I thought I would post the information to both threads. I contacted the company right after seeing your message but they did not get back to me until I had contacted them several times and sent an email to the contact they had given me for our neighborhood. This is not something that is typically done by the board, but since they were unwilling to help you, I agreed to jump in any way. The cost they are giving us is only given for one year from this date. But for the coming year, this is what they are offering Mansion Farm......

Waste Industries, based in Townsend DE, is pleased to offer Mansion Farms Community the following quote to provide solid waste and recycling services!!

By signing a 1 year Service Agreement with our company, we can offer your community the following rates:

• $65.00 per quarter per household to include 1 time per week trash service and every other week recycling service.

Other possible discounts available:

• $4.50 per quarter for seniors
• 5% discount for paying a year in advance
• Additional discounts may be available for Communities where the HOA assumes responsibilty for the bill and in turn bills their residents directly. 

Trash Service includes the following: 

One time per week service at the curb with a 95 gallon wheeled container.  In addition to the can, we will take 3 household bags. 

Single-stream recycling service includes the following:  

Every other week service at the curb with a 95 gallon wheeled container  (in addition to the 96 gallon wheeled container provided for your waste removal at the curb).  You may place newspapers, junk mail, cardboard, glass (all colors), plastic bottles, aluminum and tin cans, mixed and loose in the container.   Please do not place ANY plastic bags in your recycle can as the recycling facilty will NOT accept them. 

Carts are generally delivered before your first pickup. 

Additional Services:

• Yard Waste Service is available in certain locations.  Residents that are interested in this servicewill need to contact our customer service department for pricing. 

• Bulk Pickup service is available for all of our customers.  While we do take “most” bulk items for free, there are some we can not take either due to restrictions with the item or with the truck that is doing your collection.  For this reason, we ask that all bulk items be scheduled before pickup with our customer service department. 

Payment Options:

Billing is quarterly.  Automated payment plans are available.  Payments can also be made through your bank’s bill payment service, at our web site, by calling our office with a credit, debit card or by mailing a check or money order.  

We do not charge a separate fuel surcharge; however, there is a one time $40.00 cart delivery fee. We also have a $1.95 per quarter paper bill fee. You can avoid that by signing up for e-billing.  

Thank you for requesting a quote from Waste Industries.  We look forward to prioviding you with safe, dependable and cost-effective solutions to your solid waste needs.
