Online survey seeks public's opinion of Mayfield moving to single trash service provider

The City of Mayfield has opened an online survey about their proposal to institute a single citywide trash pickup service.

For now, a number of private trash services operate in the city. Mayfield officials believe that a single franchise would cut down on redundant truck routes, meaning less noise and less wear on streets. 

It could improve safety, and lead to stable and often cheaper pricing. The city could also better oversee the quality and performance of the provider. A reduction of illegal dumping and improved public health could also be a result.

Mayfield residents and businesses are asked to respond to the survey by September 30.
