The city has determined that fewer than 30% of residents set out bulk and brush waste monthly. To enhance efficiency, scheduling pickups allows us to streamline operations and reduce unnecessary collection trips for reliable, cost-effective service. Pickups must be scheduled at least two days before the collection day.
