We provide you with three carts: a green-lidded cart for garbage, a gray-lidded cart for recycling only, and a brown-lidded cart for yard debris only.
You may choose between three different cart sizes for garbage collection.
A 35-gallon cart, recommended for small households and avid recyclers.
A 65-gallon cart, our most popular size, recommended for a family of two or more.
Or a 95-gallon cart, recommended for larger households.
Recycling and Yard Debris are collected in 95-gallon carts only.
The monthly fee for garbage service depends on the size of garbage cart you choose. Recycling and yard debris collection are included in this rate.
Please call the office for current garbage service rates.

Container Placement at Street
Place trash, recycling and yard debris carts:
Roll carts must be set out the night prior to your service day.
Carts must be within 3 feet of the curb or roadside, in open view.
Each cart needs to be 4 feet from other carts, mailboxes, cars and other obstructions so our trucks can safely reach them.
Carts must be removed from the curb after they are emptied.

Collection Info:
We pick up garbage weekly. Recycling and yard debris are picked up on alternating weeks. Please see the Recycling & Yard Debris Calendar for the recycling collection schedule. The Curbside Recycling Guide provides preparation guidelines for recycling and yard debris.
All items must fit in your cart for collection. Call the office to pre-arrange pick-up of large or bulky items. A fee may apply.
Please note that household hazardous waste and biohazardous waste cannot be disposed of in your carts. Fireplace and woodstove ashes must be at least 3 days old before being discarded. Customers are liable for damages resulting from improper disposal of these items.
Please keep track of your cart number and keep your cart in your possession.
