FAQ

Trash in Broken Arrow is provided by the city as part of municipal utilities and is billed at a monthly fee. Rates and services are set by the local government; our estimate uses the fee from City of Broken Arrow – Curbside Refuse (eff. Oct 1, 2025 – Sep 30, 2026).
We use base charges and per-unit rates from official provider pages. Electric = base + (rate × assumed kWh). Water = base + (rate per 1,000 gal × assumed gallons / 1,000). Sewer is often based on winter quarter average (AWC), not current usage. Trash is a fixed monthly fee. See the Methodology page for full formulas.
Actual bills depend on usage, seasonal rates, and provider. OEC has winter discounts for usage over 1,000 kWh. Oklahoma City sewer is based on winter quarter average. Some addresses may be served by OG&E instead of OEC—verify your provider.
Each component shows a 'last verified' date. We aim to update from official sources periodically; always confirm current rates on the provider's site before making decisions.
