Trash Cart Setout Instructions

Follow these guidelines for placing your trash cart out for collection:

• Set carts out by 6AM on your collection day.

• Position the cart at the curb or alley with wheels against the curb and arrow on the lid pointing towards the street.

• Make sure the cart is at least 2 feet away from obstacles like cars and poles. Don’t block bike lanes or traffic.

• Only waste inside the cart will be collected. Do not place extra trash bags beside the cart.

Recycling Collection Process

Recycling is collected weekly on the same day as trash. Place your recycling cart at the curb adjacent to your trash cart by 6AM. Make sure recyclables are clean and loose in the cart – not bagged.

Accepted recyclables include plastic bottles/jugs, glass bottles/jars, aluminum/steel cans, paper, and cardboard. Learn more about recycling.

Bulky Item Pickup

Residents can schedule free curbside collection of up to 6 large items (furniture, appliances, etc) three times per year. Call EDCO at least 2 days before your normal collection day to schedule. Place items at the curb on your pickup day. Get details.
