Novi is getting a new waste hauler this summer.
The city council unanimously approved an 8-year contract with GFL Environmental for refuse collection, recycling and yard waste services effective July 1.
The contract will cost residents $138 in the first year. By the end of the contract in June 30, 2029, residents will see just over $10 increase in annual cost, to $148.61 in the final year. The numbers that came in were jaw-dropping; it s hard to believe we could get this price reduction, Councilman Andrew Mutch said. The price is coming down, but we re not cutting services, we re improving in some areas.
Among the improved services will be an expansion of yard waste collection into mid-December. Pick up days will remain the same.
