Waste Overages, Fines, and the Mess Around Them

The homepage names overage charges and fines, and waste overages, fines, and more, as problems community managers are managing today. Strategic does not set hauler rates and does not promise those charges disappear.

Overage charges and fines

Property teams already know the pattern: containers over the limit, extra items the hauler will not take, and a bill that shows up later. Strategic's side of that pattern is the trash area itself. On-site waste control redistributes and compacts waste in the bins. Large item pickup removes bulky items that were sitting in the enclosure. Customer Solutions follows up when a pickup is missed.

This page does not publish a fine schedule or a dollar amount for an overage. Those numbers belong to the hauler and the property. The property-types page on this site discusses the cost of mismanaged trash in the community's own words. This page stays with the services that keep enclosures and trash rooms from being the reason those charges start.

Bulk items piling up

Bulk items piling up is the other homepage line next to overages. Furniture and mattresses in front of a dumpster block the container and make the enclosure look abandoned. Scheduled bulk item removal is included in Silver and Gold plans, once a week or twice a week depending on the tier.

Special cleanups cover messes that are not a piece of furniture, including the oil spills and contaminated items named on the plan comparison. A spill and a sofa are different visits.

Try the plan before you keep it

The offer on the site is free for 30 days and no obligations. It is a trial of the service plan, not a credit against a hauler invoice. Orange County and San Diego communities can start from the office that matches the county. South Los Angeles County and Riverside County are on the areas page as well.
