Twice Each Year - Bulk Collection:


The rates paid by residential customers include a free bulk waste collection each Spring and again in the Fall.  The hauler will collect old furniture, bedding and carpeting as refuse and will collect covered-device electronics, appliances (limit one per type), and tires (limit 6 passenger size, removed from rim) for recycling.  No loose piles of debris or construction material will be removed - such materials must be properly bundled.  Have items at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on your regular collection day during the bulk waste collection week.  Keep in mind that smaller items can be left out with your regular trash throughout the year.
