Garbage Container Options
Extra Garbage
Garbage charges are based on cart size. There is a charge for extra garbage that doesn't fit in your cart with the lid closed. If your garbage cart lid is open more than 6 inches, there will be a charge for extra garbage.
If you often have extra garbage, you may want to increase your garbage size to avoid overflow and extra garbage charges.
