Special Trash Collection:
Special trash collection normally takes place on the second Tuesday of each month. This service is for the collection of items resulting from normal, routine replacement of household items. It is not intended for the pick up of an entire household of furniture and appliances. The following items are representative of the special trash collection items:
1.Furniture, including lawn furniture.
2.Appliances/water heaters.
3.Carpeting/pads, mattresses/springs.
4.Lawn care items, outdoor play equipment.
5.TV antennas, spouting.

Special trash collection does not include paper, cardboard, brush, construction materials, wood, car items, any item containing freon, or anything placed in boxes, trash bags, or trash containers. Citizens must call 335-1914 to arrange for this collection. Requests for collection must be received by noon the Friday before the collection date. Special trash collection items must be placed at the front of the residence by 7:00 A.M. on the day of collection, but must not be placed out earlier than 48 hours before the scheduled day of collection.

Solid Waste utilizes four high compaction trash trucks, one small dump truck, a brush chipper, and numerous hand and gas powered tools to provide these services to approximately 7,500 households on a weekly basis. We pride ourselves in providing the most efficient and cost effective services possible.
