HOLIDAY PICKUP

Garbage and Recycling pickup will NOT be affected by Christmas 2022 and New Years 2023 holidays.  Pickup will occur on Monday, December 26th for the South and East route and December 27th for the North and West route, as usual.  This applies to January 2nd and 3rd as well. 

 Calendar images on this page on current and correct.

Please Note: The 2022 magnet is not correct, and the new 2023 city calendar is not correct for the New Year's Holiday.

Garbage cans are provided by Republic Services for residential and commercial use. You should take your can to the street the night before your scheduled pickup. Pickup is every Monday and Tuesday unless a national holiday falls on a Monday or Tuesday which then garbage pickup will be moved to Tuesday or Wednesday. CLICK on the calendar to the right to view the schedule.

• South of Main Street and East of I-15 = Mondays (yellow on the calendar)
• North of Main Street and West of I-15 = Tuesdays (green on the calendar)

Main Street is split down the center, so if you live on the North Side you will have to pick up on Tuesdays, and if you live on the South Side you will have pickup on Mondays.

Recycling is picked up every other week. The city has maps and a magnet calendars for reference, available at the city office. 

The following guidelines should be followed to minimize problems with pickup:

• Make sure cans are at the street prior to 7 am. 

• Make sure the can is facing forward with the handle facing away from the street.

• Don't place can within 8 feet of any vehicle, trailer, etc.

• If you have multiple cans, separate them by two-to-four feet.

• Don't overfill the can as garbage will fall out before the garbage can is dumped. You will be responsible to pick up any spilled garbage.

• All items in the can must be bagged to prevent spillage.

• Garbage placed around the can on the ground will not be picked up. The garbage truck will only pick up cans.

• Use caution when placing heavy items in the can. If the truck cannot lift it, you will need to find an alternate method of disposal.

• Don't put dirt, rocks, or tree branches in cans.

• Don't put hot coals and embers.
