The Miami Township Board of Trustees approved a new contract for waste collection during its February 17, 2026, business meeting. Rumpke Trash and Recycling will once again provide service to the community over the course of a new three-year contract with two optional years.

After a competitive bid process in November 2025, it was determined that Rumpke offered the lowest monthly rates to our community.

The new contract will begin July 1, 2026, at a rate of $17.89 a month per customer. The contract will continue as follows:

July 1, 2027 - $18.83
July 1, 2028 - $19.82
Optional year 1 - $20.86
Optional year 2 - $21.95

“This new contract ensures quality services from Rumpke that our community has come to expect,” Trustee President Terry Posey, Jr., said. “We have contracted with Rumpke since 2018 as they have provided the best value and commitment to the township.”

The new three-year deal also continues to offer weekly recycling collection, yard waste collection and bulk item pickup. The current collection schedule will not change. Residents can continue to rent a 95-gallon trash cart from Rumpke at $1.50 per month or request a smaller sized cart.
