Trash Pickup & Courtesy Drop Off

Back Up

Household Trash & Yard Waste

Trash is collected weekly. This service provides curbside trash collection to approximately 8500 locations. City ordinance requires homeowners to separate their vegetation (yard waste) from other debris, such as household garbage, any type of lumber, etc. Two separate trucks collect the material: one for vegetation and one for trash.

No yard waste in bags!

At the October 2007 City Council meeting, the "Yard Waste" ordinance was amended. Yard waste which is made up of brush trimmings, grass clippings, and leaves can no longer be placed in bags in of any kind. There will be a grace period until November 15, 2007 to allow residents time to adjust. Until the deadline your debris will be continued to be picked up in bags but a flyer will be placed on your door making you aware of the changes. Below is a copy of the ordinance...

§ 50.21 YARD WASTE COLLECTION

(A) Regular yard waste will be picked up once a week unless unforeseen circumstances arise. Unforeseen circumstances may be, but is not limited to, a natural disaster or an over abundance of yard waste that will warrant a pick up on the next business day. Yard waste of any kind may not be placed in plastic bags of any size. Grass clippings shall be placed in a separate pile from brush trimmings. 
(B) The leaf collection route will be run by a schedule that is determined by the Public Works Department each year. Regular leaf pick up will start on or about October 1 of each year and end on or about April 1 of each year. Leaves must be at curbside and must not block sidewalks, lanes of travel or ditches. Leaves may not be placed in any plastic bag of any size.
