Garbage must be placed by the curb in the City issued garbage cart prior to 7:00 AM on your pickup day. View the single family garbage collection map for information on the pick up days for your area.

Single Family Collection Schedule

Garbage is collected twice per week. Bulk trash is picked up once per week. By grouping these activities together, we can strive to reduce the total amount of waste our community produces, while offering a mix of collection and disposal options.
