Service and Collection Information

Container Setout Instructions
Place containers on the street at the curb no earlier than 5 p.m on Sunday. Emptied containers must be removed from the curbside within 15 hours of pickup. Keep container at least three (3) feet from parked cars, mailboxes, and other obstacles that may prevent WM team members from picking it up.
How to Prepare Your Materials
All trash should be bagged. Do not overfill your container – the lid must close tightly.
What Belongs in Your Container
Acceptable items include standard household trash like food waste, chip bags, paper towels, plastic bags, and textiles (donate if lightly used).
Non-acceptable items include large amounts of construction waste, auto parts, tires, household hazardous waste (paint, oil, household cleaners), medical or electronic waste.
