The following is information that was sent in July 2019 to all “paying” recycling subscribers that are currently a customer of the Berkeley County/Republic Services curbside recycling pickup. Per Berkeley County & Republic Services, this information was included in the July bill that was sent to all Republic Services customers countywide. If you are not presently or have not been a paying curbside pickup customer through Berkeley County/Republic Services, please disregard this information.
The information is intended as a reminder that the residential curbside recycling contract Berkeley County holds with Republic Services will NOT be renewed after August 31, 2019. Berkeley County has a new recycling facility (RePower South) on the landfill property that sorts recyclables out of residential trash. Therefore, continuing the contract with Republic Services is not necessary. You will NOT need to take any further action such as canceling your account with Republic Services. You were recently invoiced by Republic Services for the third quarter. With the contract ending August 31, 2019, Republic Services will be issuing a credit for the September charge.
For any questions about the new recycling facility or curbside pick-up, please contact Berkeley County Water and Sanitation at 843-719-2383.
