Additional Policies & Clarification


This collection is not intended for the pickup of an entire household of furniture and appliances, move outs, and/or evictions. Special trash collection items must be placed out at the same place as your weekly trash; this includes alley pickups that will now place their special trash in the alley. Your weekly and special trash items must be out at 7 a.m. on the day of collection, but must not be placed out earlier than 24 hours before the scheduled day of collection. Special trash items must also be separated from your weekly trash.
