Garbage & Recycling

Your pickup day

Put carts at the curb by 6 a.m. with the lids closed and at least three feet between them. Pickup moves one day later in any week with a holiday on a weekday.

What goes in each cart

Cart	Yes	No
Blue: recycling	Paper, cardboard, plastic bottles and tubs, metal cans	Plastic bags, glass, foam, food
Green: yard debris and food	Leaves, grass, branches under 4 inches, food scraps	Pet waste, plastic, dirt and rocks
Gray: garbage	Everything else from the house	Paint, batteries, electronics, medicine

Glass, batteries and hazardous waste

Glass bottles and jars go in the separate yellow bin, collected every other week. Batteries, paint and chemicals go to the Household Hazardous Waste day at the Public Works yard on the first Saturday of each month.

Fall leaf collection

From November 17 to December 19, rake leaves into the street gutter (not over the storm drain) on your pickup day and a sweeper truck will collect them.
