Bulk/Special Trash
All Bulk/Special Trash items (no more than 3) need to be placed at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on your scheduled collection day, or you can put them out the after 7:00 p.m. the night before. Public Works does not do a specific route, so they will not be picking up your trash at a specific time each day. We are no longer doing late bulk trash pickup, so if you miss it, you miss it.  You will have to wait until the next scheduled pick up for your location. All loose materials must be in containers and cannot exceed 50 pounds. Up to three items are accepted.
