The 30-second brief

What it covers

The City of Salem received a bid from Family Trash Services for five years of residential curbside trash collection beginning in 2026, but the company did not propose biosolids hauling or disposal and its rates were higher than a competing bidder. Staff therefore recommended against selecting Family Trash Services in favor of a lower-cost, full-service provider.
