Residential Collections

Solid Waste Residential Collections
Residential garbage collection is provided twice a week. The city offers side-door solid waste collection service that allows residents to place their refuse next to their house or in front of their garage or carport. Never put anything on top of or near trash containers because those items may be collected and disposed of with the refuse.

Rules and Regulations

• Quantity: Two 32-gallon trash containers or three 20-gallon containers will be collected next to homes. All other waste must be placed within 6 feet of the curb. All garbage must be in containers or marked as waste.
