[๐Ÿ“ƒ Agreements & Contracts](https://help.waster.com.au/pricing-contracts?hsLang=en-au#agreements-contracts) # Wasterโ€™s 30-Day Flexible Agreement Explained ## How our rolling month-to-month contract works and why itโ€™s fair for both customers and suppliers At Waster, we believe that waste management contracts should be **simple, transparent, and flexible**. Thatโ€™s why we offer a **30-day rolling agreement** instead of locking customers into long-term contracts that can be expensive and difficult to exit. This post explains exactly how our 30-day flexible agreement works and why itโ€™s designed to protect both our customers and our business. --- #### What Is Wasterโ€™s 30-Day Flexible Agreement? When you sign up with Waster, you enter into a **legally binding service agreement** โ€” but unlike traditional waste management contracts, it operates on a **month-to-month basis**. - The contract rolls forward automatically every month. - Either party can end the agreement by giving **30 daysโ€™ written notice**. - Services continue seamlessly until notice is given. This arrangement is clearly set out in our [Waste and Recycling Terms and Conditions](https://waster.com.au/waste-recycling-terms-conditions/), under **Clause 4 (The Term)** and **Clause 9 (Cancellation of Service)**. --- #### Why 30 Daysโ€™ Notice Is Important The 30-day notice period ensures that services can be wound down in a professional and orderly way. It allows: - **Final bin empties** before removal. - **Transport scheduling** for bin collection. - A smooth close to the agreement without disruption to your business. Itโ€™s not about trapping you โ€” itโ€™s about ensuring both parties are treated fairly. --- #### What About Bin Removal Fees? To keep things transparent: - If you cancel **within the first 3 months**, a **$199+GST removal fee** applies. - This covers transport costs and prevents Waster being used as a **โ€œcheap one-offโ€ service**. - If cancellation is due to **poor service**, no removal fee applies. - After the first three months, bin removal is **free of charge**. This small safeguard ensures fairness and protects long-term customers. --- #### How Wasterโ€™s Flexible Agreement Compares to Traditional Contracts Most waste providers require you to sign a **2โ€“5 year contract**, with steep penalties for early exit. Wasterโ€™s approach is different: - **No lock-in** โ€” only 30 daysโ€™ notice required. - **No hidden penalties** โ€” just a fair removal fee in the first three months. - **Customer-friendly** โ€” flexibility to adjust or cancel services as your business changes. --- #### Final Word Wasterโ€™s **30-Day Flexible Agreement** is designed to give you the best of both worlds: - A legally binding contract that ensures professionalism, compliance, and insurance. - The flexibility to change or leave without the heavy penalties common in the waste industry. ๐Ÿ‘‰ For full details, check our [Waste and Recycling Terms and Conditions](https://waster.com.au/waste-recycling-terms-conditions/). -
