Garbage wars in my hood

[pierogigirl]

We are switching to garbage collection company B from company A because they offered 2 months free and an $11 monthly savings guaranteed for 1 year. My neighbors had company B and are switching to company A for the same deal. We compared numbers and no one was paying the same at any of the companies before or after the deals.

Who knew? All of us are saving about $175 this year, and next year we'll probably all switch back.

Who knew you could switch garbage companies?? You can't do that here!

We can switch because it's not picked up by the town, but it honestly never occurred to me that there would be such a difference in price, or that companies would actively solicit "switchers". When I bought my house they were all pretty much the same price, so I just went with the name I saw on the most cans.
