How it Works
Red Duck Refuse & Recycling is a year-round trash hauling contractor serving residences in and around the Killington area.
Annual or seasonal contracts are available so you can count on scheduled weekly pick-ups all year, as well as special pick-ups any time.
We pride ourselves on being the most eco-friendly and economically-friendly trash service in Killington. We are certified with the State of Vermont for all environmental recycling & refuse handling requirements.
Billing & Payments
If you are an existing customer, please note, our billing/invoicing processes have been modified.
We will now be sending invoices via email every month. This helps keep our costs and our rates down versus mailing hard copies. If you wish to have a paper copy mailed to you, please call our office, or fill out the contact form here on the website and we will be happy to accommodate this request.
The first invoice you receive will include the fees for 6 or 12 months of service charge (depending on service level selected) and the first month of bag fees (trash and recycling) that was picked up at your location. Subsequent invoices will only have your monthly bag (trash and recycling) fees amount. Invoices are due within 30 days. If your account goes past 60 days, your service will be suspended until the account is brought back to a current status.
