Copperas Cove, TX
Garbage Collection and Utilities. -
8/30/2014Copperas Cove is probably one of the nicer towns relative to the rest of the area. There are two things that people should be aware of when they live there 1. If you have your utilities on an automatic withdraw and a problem occurs (ie: card expires etc), the utilities office will not email you and they will not snail mail you (despite basing your charges off of your mailing address). If they do not have your phone number they will make no effort of contact you, instead, they will just let the bills and late fees rack up and eventually turn your utilities off and charge you exorbitant fees to have them turned on. 2. Each residence is provided one garbage can to be collected once a week. If your have more than fits in the can they will charge you extra, and it is not a negligible amount. One week I was charged $109 for garbage collection, and I was not disposing of any large items (no furniture, tires, electronics etc). The charge accounted for a few extra boxes of garbage.
