DECATUR, Ill. (WAND) — Waste Management customers are receiving their first garbage bills for 2024. These invoices should reflect the new rates, approved by Decatur City Council earlier this month.

Customers will now be charged $23.50 per month for standard service. This bill now includes the cost of a garbage can rental and all fees for service.

Decatur residents can also expect to see changes to rules for garbage pick-up in the new year. All customers will be required to use a 64-gallon or 96-gallon can. Alleyway pick ups are also being moved to a street or curb location. Customers will also be allowed additional bulk pick ups.
