Effective Monday, September 9, 2024, all household waste must
be placed in city-issued black or brown carts for collection. Waste that is not in these carts will not be
collected. Citizens wanting to purchase a second cart (brown cart) for residential household waste at a onetime
fee of $55.00 can do so by calling 311. There is no additional charge to collect from the second cart/brown cart
purchased from the city. Qualified low-income residents who have applied and been approved, based on Federal
Government Poverty Guidelines, will be eligible for a brown city issued household waste cart at no additional
cost.
All collection services (household garbage, recycling, and yard waste) will be provided on the same day as the
normal household garbage day. Citizens will only need to put out carts once a week.
For bulk waste collection, including green waste or junk, citizens must request this service by calling 311. This
service is not part of the regular curbside collection and needs to be scheduled separately.
Please ensure that there is a 3-foot clearance around each cart and avoid placing them near stationary objects
such as cars, transformer boxes, power poles or etc. As a reminder, all limbs cut for the city to collect must be
no longer than four (4) feet in length and no wider than six (6) inches in diameter. Any limbs exceeding these
dimensions will not be collected.
