Garbage/Recycling

Garbage pickup is every week, recycling weeks are marked in red on the calendar.  Your recycling will be picked up the same day as your garbage.  For the safety of our garbage and recycling employees, garbage cans cannot be any larger than 32 gallon or weigh more than 50 pounds when full.  Ward 1 is picked up on Mondays, Ward 2 is picked up on Tuesdays, Ward 3 is picked up on Wednesdays, and Ward 4 is picked up on Thursdays.  Typically, if a holiday is observed on a Monday, then Ward 1 and Ward 2 will be picked up on Tuesday of that week.  If you are unsure what ward you live in, please contact City Hall to find out what day your pickup is.

Large Items / Construction Debris

You may take large items and construction debris to Modern Disposal behind the fairgrounds.

Please contact them for hours and fees (715) 284-4300.
