Trash fee relief for benefit-only households

Alabama households whose only income is Social Security or veterans’ benefits are exempt from local solid waste collection and disposal fees. Households must give proof to the county health officer by the year’s first billing date and request relief each year. The exemption continues while the household’s sole income source stays the same. Above the federal poverty level, the exemption requires a county or city resolution allowing it. Counties and cities can also exempt households with total income at or below 75% of the federal poverty level.
