For residents moving into newly constructed homes or into previously occupied homes, contact the city for bin delivery.
By 7 a.m. on your pickup day, place all approved containers in your green recycle bin and all approved paper items in a brown paper sack and put on your curb or in your alley for pickup. Do not set out newspapers if it is raining or rain is forecast.
