*MSW = Municipal Solid Waste; *C&D – Construction and Demolition
To receive Carson City residential rates, the landfill customer must show proof of residency.
To receive the Wood Waste, Green Yard Waste, or Class III (C&D) rates, the loads must be comprised strictly of that material only. If the loads do not conform to this and are mixed in nature, the loads will be charged at the rate for the most expensive material. EXAMPLE: a load is predominately Class III, but contains any amount of asbestos containing material – the complete load will be charged at the rate for asbestos.
1 Rate shall be adjusted annually in May using the annual percentage change in the Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U) – US City Average, Garbage and Trash Collection, as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Washington D.C., commencing with the index for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2012, and each percentage change annually thereafter. In no year shall the adjustment be less than zero or more than six percent (6%). The term shall coincide with the term of the Solid Waste and Recyclable Materials Franchise Agreement, Chapter 5.10 of the Carson City Municipal Code.
