Mansfield switching to Frontier Waste Solutions

The City of Mansfield has signed a contract with Frontier Waste Solutions to provide residential and commercial trash and recycling services starting this fall.

The company will begin operations Oct. 1 when the current contract with Republic Services ends. The company will provide the same level of service that residents are accustomed to including twice-a-week by hand curbside trash pickup and once a week curbside recycling.

Prior to Oct. 1, businesses can expect to receive mailings, email notifications, phone calls and/or a visit from Frontier Waste representatives.

“This partnership will allow Mansfield residents to continue to receive the same level of service they’ve come to expect at a more economical rate,” Mayor Michael Evans said. “We know change can be difficult but I encourage folks to stay up to date on the transition information that

will come out throughout the process.”

By switching providers, the city is able to maintain twice-a-week hand pickup at a more economical rate. The City of Mansfield has worked with Republic Services for 20 years, but the company’s latest services proposal included going to once-a-week, automated trash cart residential pickup with significantly higher fees.

As part of this transition, Frontier will provide residents with new recycling bins in September and Republic Services will collect its recycling carts from homes at September’s end. More information about the transition process will be provided later.

“We aim to make this change as seamless as possible and encourage community members to be on the lookout for upcoming informational opportunities,” said Howard Redfearn, Environmental Services manager.

The city will share information online, at city facilities and through various communications channels.

Frontier Waste Solutions was founded in 2017. The Dallas-based company is committed to quality, customer service, safety and environmental responsibility.
