Residential: All residential customers, except for 801 housing have their solid waste pickup in 1.5 or 3 yard containers. These containers are picked up on a once a week basis. All 801 housing residents use polycarts and they are picked up on Thursdays. For any solid waste that won’t go in the dumpster, there are two options. For tree limbs, couches and large items that are placed beside the dumpster, the City will pick them up with a side boom truck. This truck runs the whole city on a route. It takes from 4 to 6 weeks to run the route. The other option is the Convenience Center.
