WM provides one 96 gallon cart for weekly trash collection. To view your specific service day, please click here, enter your address and select "Verify”.

Place container on the street with wheels against the curb by 6 a.m. on collection days and remove same day. Keep container at least three feet from parked cars, mailboxes, and other obstacles that may prevent WM team members from picking it up.

Acceptable items include standard household trash like food waste, chip bags, paper towels, plastic bags, and textiles (donate if lightly used).
