Home Trash Service in Americus, GA

WM provides a green or gray, 95 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 (3) feet from parked cars, mailboxes, and other obstacles that may prevent WM team members from picking it up.

Empty loose recyclables directly into your container. No loose plastic bags and never bag your recyclables. Do not overfill your container - the lid must close tightly. Contaminated materials or overflow may be subject to an additional charge, or not collected. Looking for more information on how to set up a successful recycling system in your home? Visit Recycle Right® for step-by-step instructions, downloadable container labels, and more.

Recycle clean and dry bottles, cans, paper, and cardboard. Break down cardboard boxes to keep them from getting stuck in your container. Do not place plastic bags or liners in your container (local recycling drop-off programs for bags may be available). Visit Recycle Right® for more information on recycling.
