Containers Out The Night Prior
|
Collection times may vary as routing schedules change, and so it is very
important to have all containers at the street the night prior to your
collection day. We appreciate your cooperation.
Please remove all containers from the street as soon as possible
after collection.
|
Container Placement at the Street
|
Place carts:
- Three (3) feet apart
- At least three (3) feet from cars, trees, mailboxes, fences
- Cart wheels as close to the curb as possible
- Cart lids opening toward street
When possible, trucks with robotic arms will lift, empty and
replace the carts without the drivers leaving the trucks,
reducing safety hazards and traffic congestion.
Securely bag loose and dusty materials such as ashes, kitty
litter, sawdust, animal waste, and packing "peanuts" before
placing in the garbage can.
Weight Limit 60 Pounds (Overweight containers will not be
emptied)
For your safety and the safety of your collectors,
please limit each of your containers to the following
weights:

Extra Garbage
There is an additional charge for each extra bag or
container (up to 32 gallon 60 lb. limit and bags 35 lb.
limit) that doesn't fit in your garbage container with
the lid closed. If you often have extra garbage, you may
want to increase your garbage container size to avoid
overflow and extra garbage charges.
Temporary Garbage Services
Large containers are available for temporary
projects such as remodeling and construction.
Contact WM Customer Service or 800-808-5901 (M-F 7
am - 5 pm).
Reduce Your Garbage Costs!
Garbage rates vary according to cart size.
Recycling may
help reduce your garbage enough that you may be able
to order a smaller size and lower your garbage
bills.
