Curbside REFUSE / RECYCLING Collection

Refuse... Green Waste... Mixed Recyclables

Collection schedules are changing as recycling is integrated into the system. Your neighborhood is serviced twice per week, either Monday/Thursday, Tuesday/Friday or Wednesday/Saturday. When recycling is added, one day is designated for refuse pickup and the other for recycling pickup. Most island homes are using the wheeled carts provided by the City, but some areas where automated collection is not possible, are still serviced with a manual collection system using your own 35-gallon containers. Recycling is being expanded to the automated areas first, and plans for the manual areas will follow.
