Curbside Collection

Recycling is collected every other week using the Blue Cart. Additional recycling carts are available for purchase. Look up your collection date using our online tool.

Set Out Instructions:

• Carts must be at the collection point (alley line or curb line) by 7 AM on designated pickup dates.
• Carts must be returned to the storage area by 10 PM. (Winter pickups for garbage and recycling routes may be postponed due to winter weather. In this situation, leave the cart(s) at the collection point until emptied.)
• Recyclables may be loose within the cart. 
• Residents may place excess recyclables that will not fit inside the cart in additional clear blue 42 gallon bags outside their FULL recycling cart.
• Residents allowed to place broken
  down cardboard, either boxed, bundled or
  tied not to exceed 4’ in length or width, and 3’ in height, outside their FULL recycling cart.
• Businesses MUST have all Recyclable materials inside a cart. Materials outside the carts will not be
  collected.  To
  obtain additional carts, please call the DPW Field Office at (262) 636-9126
  between 7 AM and 3 PM on work days  

  Some residents may be eligible for special collection if they are unable to physically move their carts. To apply for a special collection have your physician fill out the
  Special Collections form, and return it to the solid waste division to the address on the form.
