Waste and Trash Collection
Residential household trash is picked up once each week.
The
Pay As You
Throw (PAYT) Trash Program will start January 1, 2011 along with
the bi-weekly collection of
Zero Sort
Recycling.
Trash collection may
be delayed one day
when trash collection day is a holiday.
Six holidays are observed. New Year's Day, Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day,
Thanksgiving and Christmas. Monday holidays will result in Monday's weekly trash
being picked up on Tuesday, Tuesday's weekly trash on Wednesday, Wednesday's
weekly trash on Thursday, and Thursday's weekly trash on Friday.
