Trash & Recycling Collection

  • Bulk trash collection will be the first full week and third week of each month. Bulk weeks are highlighted in yellow on the 2023 Holiday Trash Schedule (PDF). In addition to regular trash (3 - 45 gallon trash cans and two City provided recycle cans), Residents can place 5 additional secured bags not to exceed 50 lbs each and two bulk items, ex. mattress, chair, couch, table, etc.
  • Trash and recycling containers should be metal or plastic, watertight, have handles, not exceed 32 gallons and weigh no more than 50 pounds when filled.
  • Plastic trash bags may be used in place of containers, but must not be overloaded or ruptured. Metal drums not originally designed to contain trash are NOT acceptable.
  • Five-gallon buckets are not considered a proper container for trash and/or recycles. If you place your recycles or trash in a five-gallon bucket, it will be collected as a recycled item as they are recyclable. It is not considered a reusable container. Please use a reusable container to ensure proper pick-up.
  • Any trash or construction debris generated by a contractor is the responsibility of the contractor and the homeowner. The City will not remove this waste, even if it is placed curbside. Residents should insist that the contractor use a dumpster and private hauler for construction debris.
  • All trash must be placed at the curb before 7 am on trash day, but not before 5 pm on the day prior to collection. After collection, empty containers shall be removed from the curbside promptly, no later than 7 pm.
