DISTRIBUTION OF WMI 96-GALLON POLY CARTS
Distribution of the 96-gallon Waste Management, Inc. (WMI) poly carts will begin Monday, April 12, 2021. There will be no charge to residential customers for the cart. However, each customer must use the new cart. This will result in greater operational efficiency and ensure household trash is contained. It will take 3-5 days to distribute all of the carts. Once a citizen receives their poly cart, all trash must be put in the poly cart and the lid closed. Poly carts will be delivered wherever residential trash is currently being serviced (e.g., in the alley or in front of any residence where there is no alley). WMI will take any old trash cans that residents no longer want if they put an "X" on the can with masking tape or spray paint. The old cans will be picked-up on the next “Bulk” day(s). Bulk pick-up is the LAST Monday/Tuesday of the month. Bulk pick-up is for any items that are too large to fit into the 96-gallon poly cart (e.g., rugs, mattresses, old appliances, refrigerators that have freon removed, tables, chairs, etc.). WMI will pick-up virtually anything on bulk day that is NOT construction debris or hazardous material. We are one of the few municipalities that still offers twice per week garbage service, bulk service, AND leaf / limb pick-up. Contact City Hall at (512) 237-3282 for more information.
