Frequently Asked Questions

Why am I seeing a charge from Republic Services on my card or bank statement?

This charge is usually for trash and/or recycling services provided to your home, business, HOA, or rental property. It may be a monthly or quarterly bill, or a one-time charge for services like a roll-off dumpster or special bulk pickup.

What does the descriptor 'REPUBLIC SERVICES TRAS 8665765548 AZ' mean?

'TRAS' is typically a truncation of 'trash,' and 866-576-5548 is a Republic Services customer service number. The 'AZ' refers to their headquarters location in Arizona and may appear even if service is provided in another state.

How can I confirm which Republic Services account this charge is for?

Sign in to your account at republicservices.com or check your paper or email bill for the account number and billing amount, then match those details to the charge on your statement. If you manage multiple properties, verify each account’s billing cycle and amount.

How do I cancel or change my Republic Services trash service to stop future charges?

Contact Republic Services customer service via the phone number on your bill or through the 'Contact Us' page on republicservices.com. Request cancellation or service changes; depending on your contract or municipal agreement, notice periods or early termination rules may apply.

Can I get a refund or adjustment for a Republic Services charge I believe is incorrect?

Yes. Reach out to Republic Services billing support with your account number, a copy of your statement, and details about the issue. They can investigate missed pickups, incorrect service levels, or duplicate billing and, if appropriate, issue a credit or refund to your account.

Why did Republic Services charge me even though my landlord or HOA is supposed to pay for trash?

In some arrangements, tenants or homeowners pay Republic Services directly, while in others, charges are bundled into rent or HOA dues. Check your lease or HOA documents and ask your landlord or property manager whether service is billed directly to you or through them.

Does Republic Services place authorization holds or temporary pending charges?

If you update your payment method or make an online payment, you may see a pending transaction or small temporary hold while the payment is processed. These typically clear or finalize within a few business days, depending on your bank.

How can I contact Republic Services about a charge if I don’t have my paper bill?

Go to republicservices.com and use the 'Sign In' or 'Create an Account' options with your service address and email, or call their customer service line (such as 866-576-5548 shown on the descriptor). Provide your name and service address so they can locate your account and review the charge.
