Republic Services taking over trash collection in Radcliff
A new company will be taking over trash collection duties in Radcliff after the sale of Green River Waste.
According to a release from Radcliff Mayor JJ Duvall, the city was not aware of the sale of Green River Waste to Republic Services until the mayor’s office was informed Tuesday morning, shortly after Green River employees were told of the sale.
Duvall noted that the sale of Green River is a private business transaction and therefore the city has no power to stop it, and noted that Green River’s franchise agreement for city garbage collection allows the franchise agreement to be assigned to another company “provided that certain legal and operational requirements were met.”
Duvall said Republic understands that they are “obligated to honor the remainder of the five-year contract pricing.” Radcliff residents will still use the residential and commercial cans that were provided by Green River. Customers will see a change in billing format from Green River’s normal card to Republic’s envelope.
Duvall said the city is working closely with Republic Services to ensure a smooth transition with no service interruptions. The city will provide updates as more information is received.
