Once weekly pickup of a 96 gallon roll out cart at residential locations only and once weekly collection of an 18 gallon recycling bin. Commercial locations can contract with Waste Management or another provider for garbage collection. Apartments have the option of roll out carts or dumpsters. Commercial accounts must arrange for private collection.

WASTE MANAGEMENT uses an automated one arm truck to service your 96-gallon trash receptacle.

The automated arm will reach out and lift the container and dump into the truck.

Carts must be placed at the curb with the opening of the lid facing the road and cart turned straight (wheels facing the house). A sticker with an arrow will be placed on your cart. Please point arrow toward the street.

DO NOT place cart next to or in front of your mailbox, parked cars, power poles, fire hydrants or any other large objects.

DO NOT place recycle bin directly beside the cart. Please cut CARDBOARD down to 2’x3’ feet and place in recycle bin.

DO NOT put a bungee cord on the cart to keep the lid closed.

Please make sure that all trash is placed inside the cart and bagged to assure that there is no spillage or blown trash.

If you have more waste than the 96-gallon cart will hold, please contact Waste Management for an additional cart at an additional cost, (919) 777-5052.

BENEFITS OF THIS CHANGE:
• Efficient quick removal of your solid waste
• Driver remains in the truck and improves traffic flow
• Minimize injury to the driver
• All waste inside of the carts, therefore improving the appearance of the City
