Curbside Garbage
Containers Out by 6 am
Collection times may vary as routing schedules change, and so it is very important to have all containers at the street by
6 am
. We appreciate your cooperation.
Please remove all containers from the street as soon as possible after collection.
Container Placement at the Street
Place carts:
Three (3) feet apart
At least three (3) feet from cars, trees, mailboxes, fences
Cart wheels as close to the curb as possible
Cart lids opening toward street
When possible, trucks with robotic arms will lift, empty and replace the carts without the drivers leaving the trucks, reducing safety hazards and traffic congestion.
Overweight containers will not be emptied
64 gallon carts should weigh no more than 130 pounds.
96 gallon carts should weigh no more than 180 pounds.
Extra Garbage
There is an additional charge for each extra bag or container (32-gallon, 65 lb. limit) that doesn't fit in your garbage container with the lid closed. If you often have extra garbage, you may want to increase your garbage container size to avoid overflow and extra garbage charges.
Reduce Your Garbage Costs!
Garbage rates vary according to cart size.
Recycling
can help reduce your garbage enough that you may be able to order a smaller size and lower your garbage bills.
