What are the codes for placement of garbage and recycling bins for collection?

To dispose of limbs and branches, please make sure that they are cut no longer than 4 feet, tied, and bundled. The bundles must not weigh over 50 pounds. You can place these bundles out with your trash. Call Republic Servicees if you have an extra large amount to be picked up that day.

The local trash service will also collect, at no additional charge:

  • Appliances
  • Household/bedroom furniture
  • Kitchen items
  • Refrigerators or A/C units (proof of CFC/Freon removal must be affixed to the unit)
  • Water heaters

This additional service is provided only when residents call Republic Services and request service.

The following items will not be picked up:

  • Building materials
  • Dirt
  • Hazardous waste items
  • Oil filters
  • Rock
  • Tires
