Container Pickup Rates

The Solid Waste - Container Pickup Rates module allows an agency to establish monthly billing rates for solid waste removal.

The process consists of three steps:

  1. Agencies establish Pickup Rate types and assign costs.
  2. Users create Solid Waste Containers.
  3. Then, users add each Container to a Solid Waste account and selects the Pickup Rate to be charged for service. The program uses this information to calculate a total Billing Amount for each Solid Waste account location.
