Initial Payment:

We require an advance payment of $40.00 before we will begin Service. This prepayment establishes your contract with us and will be credited directly to your account. It will pay for most of the first two months of your service.
You must notify us to discontinue service.

 

Monthly Rate:

$23.00 (For a single family household making on-time payments.
Our rates are based on regular household trash & recyclables for a single-family household. After your initial payment is used up, bills will be sent quarterly (every 3 months).
You will receive your statements on the 15th day of February, May, August and November. You must pay on time to keep this monthly rate. Extra charges will be added for late payments. For your convenience, we have a drive-up mail slot at our 1120 E. 5th office. Another mail slot is located to the right of the office door. Checks and money orders, (NO CASH), may be dropped into these mail slots. Cash payments should be made in person at the front desk and you must get a cash receipt in writing from us.

 

 

Families wishing to pay monthly may do so but the billing is done only quarterly.
Make your monthly payment of $23.00 at any time during the month that is convenient for you. You MAY want to coordinate your Sunshine payment to some other routine bill, like cable TV, telephone, etc., so you will be reminded each month to make your payment. THEN when your quarterly bill comes, check to be sure that your payments have been recorded properly.
