What are my options for excess garbage / rubbish or other bulky items that will not fit in the container?

Excess garbage may be placed in plastic bags only (no boxes), and placed at curbside at least four feet from your container. The vehicle operator will reload the excess bags of garbage into the container for dumping. An Excess Garbage Fee will be assessed, up to a maximum of two reloads per collection day, and this fee is $7.50 per reload. Your monthly garbage account will be billed for the extra fees.


Use services as explained under "Special Collection Services." Take the waste materials to the Transfer Station and use your free disposal per calendar month for up to 500 pounds.
