## What the record says about canceling Clark Pest Control

Company terms and statements first, then customers’ reports. Each links to its source; quotes are the source’s exact words.

- Company-stated minimum term: residential recurring plans are sold as 12-month / one-year agreements (Clark BBB replies, 2023-2026). (sources [9](https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/lodi/profile/pest-control/clark-pest-control-inc-1156-300023/complaints)) Quote: “On June 29, Mr. REMOVEDsigned a 12-month REMOVEDagreement with Clark Pest Control”
- Company-stated early cancellation fee of $199 (several Clark BBB replies, 2025-2026). (sources [8](https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/lodi/profile/pest-control/clark-pest-control-inc-1156-300023/complaints?page=2), [11](https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/lodi/profile/pest-control/clark-pest-control-inc-1156-300023/customer-reviews), [13](https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/lodi/profile/pest-control/clark-pest-control-inc-1156-300023/complaints?page=3)) Quote: “our representative reviewed the terms and conditions of the service including the early termination fee of $199.00”
- Website Terms of Use: mandatory binding arbitration (AAA) and class-action waiver for “any dispute or claim relating in any way to your access or use of the Website or to any other aspect of your relationship with Clark Pest Control of Stockton, Inc.”; 30-day opt-out by email; exclusive venue in Georgia courts. (sources [14](https://www.clarkpest.com/terms-of-use)) Quote: “You acknowledge and agree that any dispute or claim relating in any way to your access or use of the Website or to any other aspect of your relationship with Clark Pest Control of Stockton, Inc. will be resolved by binding arbitration,”
- Other company-stated early cancellation / “early reimbursement” fees: $247.50, $297.50, $500 (“standard”) and $600, depending on the account (Clark BBB replies). The terms are described as including “an early reimbursement fee if the agreement is terminated before the end of the specified period”. (sources [8](https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/lodi/profile/pest-control/clark-pest-control-inc-1156-300023/complaints?page=2), [9](https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/lodi/profile/pest-control/clark-pest-control-inc-1156-300023/complaints)) Quote: “Our terms of service include an early reimbursement fee if the agreement is terminated before the end of the specified period.”
- Door-to-door plans are billed automatically each month (e.g. $59 initial service, $119 recurring services billed as $59.50 monthly) (company BBB reply). (sources [9](https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/lodi/profile/pest-control/clark-pest-control-inc-1156-300023/complaints)) Quote: “enrolled in a monthly REMOVEDplan with an initial service fee of $59 and recurring service fees of $119, to be paid automatically in monthly billing payments of $59.50.”
- The residential service agreement itself is not published on the website; Clark’s replies refer to signed agreements (“service agreement”, “terms and conditions of the service”). Renewal and cancellation-channel terms are not stated anywhere found. (sources [13](https://www.bbb.org/us/ca/lodi/profile/pest-control/clark-pest-control-inc-1156-300023/complaints?page=3)) Quote: “our representative reviewed the terms and conditions of the service”
