Single Residence Curbside and On- Premise Service Rates Curbside Service is defined as the can being placed within five (5) feet of, and at the same level as, the curb or side of the principle street. Charges for this service equal the applicable amount for size and number of cans on the currently approved Rate Sheet. On- Premise Service is defined as the can being visible from the street, six to 25 feet from the curb, and accessible to a wheeled cart (no steps allowed unless in an MVRS- approved location). Charges for this service equal the applicable amount for size and number of cans on the currently approved Rate Sheet plus $5.00 per can per month. Empty cans will be left at the curb unless the customer agrees to pay 2X the carryout rate to return them. On- Premise Plus Service is defined as cans beyond 25 feet from the curb, or not visible from the street, or up or down any number of stairs, or not in a location accessible to a wheeled cart. Charges for this service equal the applicable amount for size and number of cans on the currently approved Rate Sheet plus $15.00 per can per month. Empty cans will be left at the curb unless the customer agrees to pay 2X the carryout rate to return them. Disability Exemption from On- Premise Service Bate. Individuals who cannot bring cans to the curb due to disability may fill out a Request for Disability Service form, which is available from our office or may be downloaded from our website (www.millvalleyrefuse.com). Some restrictions on can placement apply, and a doctor's certification of disability is required along with the completed form. On- Premise Service is also available for recycling and compost cans for an additional $5.00 per can per month. Empty cans will be left at the curb unless the customer agrees to pay 2X the carryout rate to return them. On- Premise Plus Service is NOT available for recycling and compost cans. Additional Quantities of Cans Service for additional cans over the quantities listed on the rate sheet will be charged a multiple of the single can, one - time - per -week pick up rate (i.e. five 32- gallon cans are charged the four -can rate plus the one -can rate). Low Income Rate A 20% discount off the applicable residential rate is available to residential Single - Family customers who have already qualified for the PG &E CARENERA Program. A copy of the customer's PG &E bill showing the qualified CARENERA Program is required for the discount. To maintain the discounted rate, customers must submit a new PG &E bill annually showing the CARENERA discount. Apartment/Multi -Unit Residential (A/MUR) Rates A/MUR complexes are defined as multi -unit residential housing with four or more units all paid for by the property owner. A/MUR complexes are charged a minimum of one 32- gallon can per unit per trip at the applicable once -per -week Apartment Rate as shown on the current, approved rate sheet. Additional 32- gallon cans over the minimum will be charged at the additional applicable per -can rate. In cases where 45- gallon cans or 1 -yard and 2 -yard containers are used instead of, or in addition to, 32- gallon cans, the following equivalency formulas will be applied to determine whether additional 32- gallon cans (over the minimum set forth immediately above) shall be charged at that location: • Each 45- gallon can will be considered to hold one - and - one -half 32- gallon cans. • Each 1 -yard container will be considered to hold seven 32 -gallon cans, and each 2 -yard container will be considered to hold fourteen 32- gallon cans. (If 1-yard or 2-yard containers supplied by MVRS are used, standard commercial container rental rates will be charged in addition to the applicable apartment rate). If the foregoing equivalency formulas result in a higher number of 32- gallon cans than the minimum of one per unit, the applicable once - per -week rate shall be applied to such higher number of 32- gallon cans. If the result is a lower number of 32- gallon cans, then the minimum one - can- per -unit charge set forth above shall be applied (unless composting services are being used). Exception to the one -can- per -unit minimum for participation in food waste composting: A/MUR complexes that actively participate* in food waste composting will be charged a rate reflecting the actual amount of garbage collection requested, measured in 32- gallon equivalents and applied on a per -trip basis at the applicable 32- gallon, once - per -week rate as shown on the current, approved rate sheet. 'To qualify as an Active Participant in food waste composting, the A/MUR complex owner or property manager must request delivery of kitchen countertop food waste collection pails (available FREE from MVRS) and distribute the pails to each unit in the complex. The A/MUR complex must also have outdoor compost carts (also provided by MVRS) available for tenants to empty the contents of their kitchen pails into for weekly pickup. To request free kitchen pails, complete with directions for their use, call our office at 457 -9760. MVRS will deliver one pail per unit. Additional pails are available for $6.00 per pail (after initial free delivery of one pail per unit). C MVRS will provide A/MUR complexes with up to one recycle can and one compost can per unit at no extra charge. Extra cans are available at $6.00 per month per can. Multiple trips in a week to a single location will be charged a multiple of the applicable once -per -week rate Apartment/Multi -Unit Residential Curbside and On- Premise Service Rates The same definitions and charges for Curbside, On- Premise and On- Premise Plus Services, as described above, apply for A/MUR complexes. HOWEVER, if our service trucks are able to drive right up to trash enclosures on a complex's property, and trash containers are within five (5) feet of where the truck is parked, MVRS will charge the same as if the cans were at Curbside.
