Service Guides & Instructions
WM provides a 96 gallon cart for weekly trash collection. To view your specific service day, please click here, enter your address and select "Verify”.
Place carts on the street with wheels against the curb the night before collection days and remove same day. Keep cart at least three feet from parked cars, mailboxes and other obstacles that may prevent WM team members from picking it up.
For new service starts, please submit a request for help by clicking here. Select "Continue as Guest,” enter your address, and follow the prompts to submit a request.
All trash should be bagged. Don’t overfill your cart — the lid must close tightly. Overflow and materials outside will not be collected.
Acceptable items include household trash like chip bags, paper towels, plastic bags, waxed paper coffee cups and textiles (donate if lightly used).
Non-acceptable items include construction/demolition materials, auto parts, hazardous waste (paint, oil, cleaners), medical and electronics waste.
If your container was curbside by the specified time and not emptied, click here to report a missed pickup via the link that will appear under the "Next Pickup” section after 6 p.m. on your service day and will remain for 72 hours. Missed pickups cannot be scheduled if your container was not out or was blocked at the time of service.
Additional carts are available for a fee. Click here to request help with changes to your services.
