Neighbors in a southwest Tucson neighborhood say they got overcharged when their HOA made a change to their trash service.
KGUN 9 received a ton of emails from homeowners in the Star Valley Master Community who say they were being taken advantage of by their trash company Waste Management.
Charlie DePhillips has lived in the Star Valley Master Community for 14 years and says he was always able to select his own trash company. Then last month the homeowners association gave the community a chance to vote for a single vendor and after getting 3 bids they chose Republic Services.
Soon after, Charlie and 549 other Waste Management customers received a letter saying that service was ending on June 30th … Then days later a bill showed up in the mail and neighbors started posting their frustrations online.
Charlie says Waste Management was charging over $100 dollars to pick up the trash cans because of the canceled service.
