Gig Waste Services, LLC (Gig Waste Services) is committed to providing you with service excellence through our operations.  This page provides disclosures and additional information regarding some of our common rates, charges, and fees.   Common items you may see on an invoice or contract:

• Environmental Recovery Fee

The Fuel Recovery Fee (“FRF”) is a company-wide recurring fee that is a fluctuating percentage of all invoice charges, except the ERF and taxes.  It is not a tax, surcharge or fee mandated by or remitted to any governmental or regulatory agency. The FRF is intended to help our business recover both direct and indirect fuel/petrochemical and electric costs associated with the operation of our collection, transfer, landfill and recycling services and facilities nationwide. It includes an amount designed to achieve an acceptable operating margin.  Your FRF will be combined with your ERF on your invoice.

• Administrative Fee

The Administrative Fee (“ADMIN”) is a company-wide recurring fee. It is not a tax, surcharge or fee mandated by or remitted to any governmental or regulatory agency. The ADMIN is intended to help Gig Waste Services recover costs associated with the administrative processes related to account maintenance, invoicing and payment processing for all customers nationwide.  It includes an amount designed to achieve an acceptable operating margin. The ADMIN is subject to change at Gig Waste Services’ discretion.

• Rate Increases

Throughout the course of providing your service, Gig Waste Services may increase your rates for service. Rate increases are necessitated over time to keep up with increasing costs of operations and to ensure Gig Waste Services is maintaining an acceptable operating margin. Gig Waste Services reserves the right to determine, at its sole discretion, the amount of all rate increases. If your service is subject to a written contract (or other written agreement applicable to your service), your rate increase will comply with any limitations set forth in such contract, if they exist. Gig Waste Services will provide prior notice of any rate increases.  This notice may be in the form of a change on your invoice.

• Container Delivery and Removal Fees

Gig Waste Services provides containers (in some cases for a rental charge) for your convenience with respect to the collection and on-site storage of your solid waste and recyclable materials while Gig Waste Services is providing your service. In some cases, the containers are specifically designed to function with Gig Waste Services’ vehicles and associated equipment. Container delivery and removal fees are intended to offset Gig Waste Services’ operational costs of sending a truck to deliver your container(s) at the start of your service and removing your container(s) when your service terminates, as well as costs related to cleaning, repairs and refurbishment of the containers following your use. Container delivery and removal fees are set by Gig Waste Services. If your service is not subject to a written contract, you will be charged the current rate for container delivery or removal at the time your container is delivered or removed.

Service interruption charges are set by Gig Waste Services, up to any amount allowed under applicable law, and are subject to change at company discretion.
