Republic Services customers in Kent will get a rebate for the missed service in July during a work stoppage to honor strikes in other cities across the nation.

“I’m happy to share some great news with you regarding rebates from Republic Services for the missed collections during the labor dispute in July,” Kent Mayor Dana Ralph announced Sept. 19 on Facebook.

Ralph said the city and Republic Services negotiated rebates for missed collections. Some customers missed one collection while others missed two.

Residential customers are billed quarterly, and these rebates will appear on the fall bill, Ralph said. The rebate amount will be based on the number of missed collections for each customer.

Republic Services will soon post more information on its website: RepublicServicesKent.com, Ralph said.

If you have questions about your bill, contact Republic Customer Service at 206-682-9735.”

Drivers honored strikes in other cities for about 10 days in July, starting on July 9.
