The citywide household trash pickup program starts Monday, March 31. Household rubbish, old appliances, and minor remodeling materials will be picked up. Compressors must be removed from refrigerators and air conditioners.
City collection efforts will follow the accompanying schedule as closely as possible, a press release said. The proposed schedule is a general guide and can vary considerably from the actual schedule due to weather conditions and/or the amount of participation by residents.
The city asked residents to follow a few guidelines:
- Place all materials near, but not beyond, the curb. Keep all materials off sidewalks, parking areas, and out of gutters.
- There is a limit of one truckload of material per residence. A truckload is defined as one pickup truck, or approximately 3 feet high by 4 feet wide by 8 feet long, or approximately 100 cubic feet maximum.
- Crews will not pick up hazardous items, paint, tires, or piles of rubbish that are mixed with brush or limbs
- All materials must be in place no later than 7:30 a.m. on the scheduled pickup day to ensure pickup. Any materials put out after 7:30 a.m. on the scheduled pickup day may not be picked up.
- Brush collection is scheduled to begin on April 30. A new schedule will be provided in advance of the start date. Brush and bagged leaves/yard clippings will be picked up during the next collection. It should be noted that bagged yard waste will be collected with the regularly scheduled refuse collection throughout the year.
