Since 2022, MUD 364 has contracted with Best Trash to provide recycling services to residential single-family users. The recycling fee is included in the sewer usage line item of customer bills.
Best Trash recently provided the District notice of a Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase to the rate charged per residence, per month. As of August 2025, Best Trash charges the District $5.56 per residence, per month (previously $5.32).
The District previously charged customers $4.50 per month for recycling services. To cover a portion of this deficit, the District is revising the recycling fee to $5.50 per month, effective on September bills.
The Board understands increases to household expenses can have a significant impact on families and tries to avoid them as much as possible. Despite having multiple CPI increases from Best Trash, the Board has not increased recycling fees charged to customers since 2022. However, this decision to increase the recycling fee was necessary to recover the District’s cost for the administration of services provided.
The Board thanks the community for your understanding and continued support in making MUD 364 a great place to live!
