Typically the builder or contractor has paid for a new container along with the permit fees. If payment has been made, the Solid Waste Division will deliver a new container once you have spent the night in your new house. We will not deliver a new container to a vacant house due to theft and vandalism reasons.

If the builder or contractor has not made payment for a new container, the new owner is responsible for payment. There is a $70 one-time maintenance fee for a new container that can be paid at the Customer Service Department in the Municipal Center.  You may call 273-3302 to verify if payment has already been made.

There is a one-time maintenance fee of $70 for a second additional container. Payment can be made at the Customer Service Department at the Municipal Center. Once payment has been received, your new container will be delivered within one day to one week at the very most.

If you should move from your house to another house within the City limits, you may take the 2nd container to your new house. Each container has a serial number that assigns the container to each address.  The serial numbers are critical to our inventory, including finding lost or stolen containers. Please call us at 273-3302 to let us know if you move the 2nd container to another house so that we may update our inventory.

Please call the Solid Waste Division at 273-3302. It is our responsibility to maintain your container. You will be asked to place the container in the yard where it can be seen from the road. Please do not leave the container at the road to avoid theft and vandalism. The container will be repaired within one day to one week at the most. We will return the container on the same day that we collected it for service repair. 

In the meantime, you may continue to place garbage in the container until we collect it for repair. If the container is out for service repair on your garbage collection day, then we will collect your garbage in bags at that time.

The bulk and brush collection is a monthly service for citizens to dispose of large items, junk items and brush from their house. The City is separated into four collection zones on an assigned schedule. Each zone lasts approximately one week long. To find out what zone you are in, you may check the color-coded decal on your garbage container or call us at 273-3302.

It is important to place all of your bulk and brush at the curb THE DAY BEFORE your zone actually begins. If you place items at the curb during your zone collection and the truck has already serviced your street, it will not back track. You will have to remove your items from the curb. The earliest that you may place items at the curb is no more than 3 days before your zone actually begins. Noncompliance with this ordinance may result in a fine by City code enforcement.

The types of items that we collect are appliances, furniture, TV's, computers, junk items, and cardboard. Cardboard boxes must be emptied and flattened out. We do not collect construction, remodeling, building materials or chemical hazardous waste. An example of chemical hazardous waste is a can of paint in liquid form. If the paint is dried completely to a solid, then we can collect it. The landfill requires us to separate the items. So, you may notice that different items are collected on different days. This may vary each month due to volume, traffic and landfill conditions.

Please separate the items at the curb and place tree limbs with the ends facing the street. Please make sure bulk and brush are not blocked by anything such as utility poles, transformer boxes, fences, fire hydrants or vehicles. There are many other items that we collect that are not listed on the website. Please call 273-3302 should you have any questions.
