Worst. Contract. Ever.
My experience is with Rumpke for my business trash, and at every step they have been an absolutely horrific company to deal with. Customer service is awful and will be rude or dismissive, the latest call included her constantly talking over me and cutting me off and even flat out trying to argue with me about things. Their pickup is spotty at best, the prices are significantly higher than republic or WM, and their contracts, good lord their contracts!
So, the contract can only be canceled by certified letter, and the letter has to be received not less than 60 days nor more than 120 days prior to the expiration of the date of it. So you have a 60 day window where you can send in this letter to Rumpke in order to cancel your agreement, otherwise you're locked into another three years. Better hope you can find the address they need it sent to (they don't make it easy) and better hope you keep your tracking because they are absolutely going to try and lie and say they never received notice. Do they have to honor their original pricing on the contract though? Of course not! Your pricing goes up and up and up with no communication and nothing you can do. Contract says it's $60 plus all fuel and fees, and we've raised up past $75 now and was told that price is cheaper than what they offer new customers in fact and to be grateful it isn't more.
That bit in the contract that says they will compete with any offer from other companies? Well they only honor that if you sign a new contract, extending you by a further three years. Excellent, so there's multiple hoops for the customer to jump through to cancel a contract whose pricing Rumpke will ignore, and where part of the contract they will ignore unless you sign a new contract to honor the original one. At this point it's laughable how much of a one way deal it seems to be, and I can only hope my negative review can be added to the ever growing pile of them full of those that had the misfortune of dealing with Rumpke.
