Senior citizens 65 years or older may be eligible for a $5.00 monthly discount on their standard curbside solid waste (garbage, recycling, yard waste) charges.
To be eligible for the discount, the following is required:
- Applicants must be 65 or older at the time of application.
- Please note: There are no retroactive discounts.
- Applicants must own and reside in a single-family home or townhome with curbside collection.
- Please note residents in multifamily or condominiums are not eligible for the discount. One discount per household.
If you meet all of the above requirements, please provide the following:
- Complete and sign an Application for Senior Discount.
- Provide proof of age. A copy of the Applicant’s valid driver’s license, or state-issued identification card, with current address, must be attached with the application.
- Provide a copy of the current bill that indicates the Applicant’s name as the account holder and address as an attachment with the application.
- Return the completed, signed application and supporting documents to one of the locations on the application.
Applicants will not be notified once applications are received. It may take 3-6 months from the date the application is approved for the discount to be reflected on a bill. To determine if you are already receiving the discount for single-family residents, please review your Tri-State Disposal bill; under the description portion, it should indicate “Discount (sr)”, or contact Tri-State Disposal directly at 708-388-9910.
