12/27/2022: Dear Seminole residents and businesses:

Thank you for trusting Waste Pro to provide you with solid waste and recycling collection services. The significant increase in fuel prices, along with the continuing national driver shortage, and ongoing supply chain issues have increased costs dramatically over the last twelve months. Company-wide we have increased recruitment efforts such as in-house training of drivers through our Co-Heart program, made wage adjustments, and continue to offer retention and sign-on bonuses to attract and retain qualified personnel. These proactive measures were taken and are modified regularly to ensure uninterrupted collection services to assist with keeping your streets clean and safe.

As allowed per our collection agreement with the City, Waste Pro will be implementing the following CPI increase (effective 12/1/2022) as well as a disposal increase (effective 10/1/2022) as related to the new tipping fee put into effect by Pinellas County for disposal services. In total, the increase will be 10.62%. This CPI and disposal increase covers operating costs as well as the disposal charges at the Pinellas County Solid Waste Disposal Complex that are allotted as per our agreement with the city. This equates to a $1.63/month per home (new residential rate $17.02/month/home). Commercial account rates will be adjusted by 10.4%.

Waste Pro provides collection and disposal service for all household trash and garbage generated from residential customers which has been properly prepared and stored.

Please place your household garbage, yard trash, and recycling curbside the night before your scheduled collection day or by 7 a.m. on the day of your scheduled service.
