Bulk and Yard Waste

Bulk Trash Guidelines

• Bulk must be placed out before 7:00 AM on the assigned collection dates.
• The collection does not apply to commercial or non-residential properties, which must provide their own bulk trash hauling.
• Single-family residences must place their trash within five feet of their curb away from utility poles, fire hydrants, mailboxes, or any other obstructions. Items must be stacked neatly at the curb.
• Multi-family residences are to place their trash at a location designated by their property manager.
• The removal of hurricane debris will take precedence over bulk waste collection. During hurricane season, once a hurricane warning has been issued, bulk waste services will be suspended.
• Bulk waste includes household items such as furniture, mattresses, appliances, carpets, padding, fencing, and other bulky non-hazardous household items. It also includes yard waste such as tree trimmings, lumber and metal poles. Broken glass will not be collected unless it is placed in a dry, sturdy container, sealed, and labeled “glass”.
• Loose material, such as leaves, must be contained in plastic bags or garbage cans. Do not place trash in cardboard boxes or paper bags as these containers tend to break open when wet.
• Lawn equipment drained of oil and gasoline will be accepted.
• No special bundling of bulk waste is required.
