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


Photo - Set Out Guidelines and WM Truck 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:

Item Weight Limit
32 Gallon Roll Cart Weight Limit 60 lbs.
60 Gallon Roll Cart Weight Limit 100 lbs.
90 Gallon Roll Cart Weight Limit 145 lbs.

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.
