Giles County Public Service Authority

Serving Giles County Citizens since 1992

6405 Virginia Avenue     PO Box 510     Pembroke, VA 24136

The Giles County Public Service Authority (PSA) is a separate governmental entity from the County of Giles and is not funded by tax dollars.  The Giles County Board of Supervisors passed a solid waste ordinance in 1992 that states that every residence in Giles County will pay a solid waste bill.  The PSA acts as an administrator/contractor for the County and their ordinance.  The PSA has over 6,500 solid waste customers, but only has 6 water customers.  The normal office hours for the PSA are 8:00am - 5:00pm Monday through Friday.
