All single-family residents will receive a 96-gallon green garbage cart with a blue lid, which will be serviced once per week. Please place all household garbage in your cart and place it curbside on your scheduled collection day. Other guidelines to follow:
Place your green garbage cart for collection adjacent to, but not in, the street by 7:00 a.m. on your scheduled pickup day. It is important to always have the cart facing the street (i.e. the handles are facing your residence).
Each 96-gallon garbage cart is equipped with an easy open-and-close lid and wheels for easy movement to the curb.
All garbage items placed in the carts should not extend above the rim.
Paper bags, cardboard boxes, recycle bins, and oil drums cannot be used as garbage containers. You must use the cart.
Used oil, paints, insecticides, chemicals, automotive parts, batteries, tires, medical waste including hypodermic needles and syringes, and hazardous waste will not be collected.
If you experience a “missed pickup” on your collection day, or have any questions, please report a problem through TracEz. You will be able to follow/monitor the progress of your request online through TracEZ.
