The city of Clinton issued the following statement.
The City of Clinton will increase the garbage rates for residential and commercial customers of the city. Due to efforts to accommodate the full cost of providing solid waste and disposal service to the residents of the city due to increasing costs by Waste Management.
The rate for residential service will increase by 61.29% to $25.00 per month. The rate for commercial service will increase by 42.50% to $28.50 per month. These increases will result in a 48% increase in total revenues in the garbage fund.
Due to the fact that the vendor has already begun to charge the new rate as of January 2022, the rates for the May 31 through September 20, 2022 will be as follows: For residential service $32.60 per month and for commercial service $35.30 per month. The rates will revert to $25.00 per month for residential service and $28.50 per month for commercial service for the October 31, 2022 bill.
The Mayor and Board of Aldermen intend to consider for passage a Resolution setting these new rates at the Regular Meeting of the Mayor and Board of Aldermen to be held May 3, 2022 at 6 PM in the Municipal Courtroom located at 305 Monroe Street.

I can mulch the organic waste
I can recycle the metals
I can incinerate the plastics that can’t be recycled
However, I am forced by law to pay this “tax” whether or not I place any rubbish out for collection.
Land of the free?
Rankin County has increased trash collection rates too. Maybe is time for Richards to come to Rankin Co.
Those extra police to hire to combat all the thugflow from Jackson can't pay for itself.
Throw the garbage on the educational and political streets. They make us pay. We make them
Pay. 👌🏾
11:47, if you don't like it, run for office or move to another country.
Compare Clinton property taxes to Jackson property taxes. After that, you will not complain about a modest increase in trash pick up fees.
12:09 : Your comeback game is dated as well as the the other guy/girls comment. Dopes..the both of yah.
No worries, just leave your weekly garbage at the Lord Mayor of Jackistan's security gate, as 100s more are going to be doing starting on April 1, right?
Why are you going to dope off Clinton garbage into Jackson. Jackson has nothing do with Clinton has a Mayor why not dope your garbage in front of his house.
@3:25 PM Because the Lord Mayor Chowke deserves it, and the drop-off location will be free, right? Besides, everyone will be doing it, right?
Fuel payments?
i live in clinton. i like having reliable pickup and recycling.
@11>47, no, you are not. You can move out into the country, buy plenty of land, mulch your organics, burn your flamables, and bury (illegally, but you will not get caught) the other crap.
But you want to live in town. You want the nice benefits of living with neighbors and amenities.
Free the land?? Get the hell out of dodge. Otherwise, pay your fees just as you pay your taxes. Its the cost of doing business.
STFU and quit trying to be a Q
City of Madison increased their garbage rates about 50% just a few months ago.
