Household Garbage On the morning of your weekly garbage collection day, your cart must be at the curb by 7:00 AM. Please remove your cart from the curb by 7:30 PM of your collection day.What to Throw Away Your cart is for disposing of regular household garbage. Before you place household garbage in your official roll cart, please make sure it is in a bag and is tied securely. Bag and tie so garbage won’t fly! Plastic shopping bags are good to use as garbage bags and you can use the handles as ties. Pet owners: please seal animal waste and cat litter in plastic bags. Do NOT use your cart for yard waste, recycling, hot ashes, flammable liquids, dead animals, hazardous waste or construction debris.Where to Park It Roll your cart to the curb or the edge of the street (see below photos for proper cart placement). The collector will return your cart to the same place. Please do not place your cart in the street or the path of the mail truck. Place your cart at least four feet from yard waste, and other obstacles.Note: Some communities require backyard pickup. Such communities are charged for the extra service and may have different placement requirements.
Excess Waste If you have extra garbage that does not fit in your assigned roll cart, place the excess in a tied bag next to the roll cart for pickup. If you routinely have excess waste, a second roll cart can be assigned to your property for a charge. Contact Richland County at 803-929-6000 for more information. |
