[quote="Guest"]I also called Midco about the deal from Central Jersey Waste a few months ago. The rep asked me about the deal I received (company name, pricing, size of container, pickup frequency, etc.). I told her I would switch if Midco could not match it. She asked the management and said ok with the lower price. I used to pay about $90/quarter for 1x; now, I pay about $75.[/quote]
