Thurston Sanitation Service Rate
Increase
In the Summer of 2022 the Village Council requested proposals for village
sanitation services. It had been five years since the last contract and
rates, due to obvious expenses, have increased. Council was able to extend
the former rates by two years by exercising a two-year option. However,
that option expired and a new contract was required. Two companies bid on
the contract and were within a dollar of each other. Council chose to
continue with Local Waste for continuity of service and no interruption of
billing cycles. The rate increase feels significant because the original
rate from five years ago was so low. Current rates are now within the norm
for sanitation pickup across the county. If you have questions, please
feel free to call the office.
