CUSTOMER WARNING ABOUT DOXO.COM THIRD PARTY WEBSITE
There is an online bill pay website named Doxo.com. It is a third-party website that allows people to pay their trash bill on their website.
It may appear that Doxo.com is affiliated with Town of Gardnerville.
THEY ARE NOT
Doxo.com sends emails reminding you your bill is due to be paid. This company charges a fee for paying your bill. Even if the bill is collected by Doxo.com that does not necessarily mean they have forwarded payment to the Town. This means you may pay a third party vendor and they may or may not pay the Town. The resident would still be required to provide the Town Payment for the services rendered.
Automatic Payment
Customers have the ability to look up their account balance online or make a payment all in the same location.
If you would like to setup the automatic payment option, you can now do that yourself when you get into your account or you can call the Town Office at 775-782-7134. If you set up your account online, please do not forget to fill out and email back the Autopay Authorization form below.
Please fill out the following form for automatic payment withdrawal:

Residential customers may put out extra trash on your regular trash day. Please keep extra bags or boxes three feet away from trash cans. On your regular trash day, you may put out six extra bags, boxes, or cans of trash. No large items (appliances, furniture, etc.) or hazardous waste (tires, batteries, paint, etc.)

Bear-Proof containers
At the May 2022 Gardnerville Town Board meeting the Board approved offering bear-resistant trash containers to residents upon request. The containers will be picked up on a weekly basis just like the trash containers now in use. Residents would need to reimburse the Town for the direct cost to provide these totes. The cost per tote is approximately $350. The containers carry only the manufacturer’s 6-year warranty. The Town of Gardnerville does not service or replace these containers.
These containers are meant to be left outside so you do not have to worry about bears breaking into your garage because of odors.
