RT Services is dedicated
to controlling costs so we can maintain the best overall service to you,
however the rising costs of fuel and environmental compliance related costs are
not something we can control. The fuel surcharge is meant to help us cover the
increased costs and achieve acceptable operating margins and not implement a
rate increase or environmental compliance charge as other companies do.
After researching information with other large companies and waste facilities,
as well as the Energy Information Administration of the US Department of Energy,
we were able to determine our rate. We decided to charge this fee as a flat
rate in lieu of a fluctuating percentage as many other companies do, so that you
can always count on your invoice not being increased by surprising amounts
making this easier for you to budget.
The fuel surcharge is not
a tax or surcharge imposed by or forwarded to any government or regulatory
agency, it is our charge alone. This fee may be changed at the discretion of RT
Services at any time.
