Trash Collection

Trash will be collected once a week. See Service Schedule tab for collection map to determine the pickup day for your area.

To help protect our employees, we strongly encourage that ALL HOUSEHOLD TRASH BE PLACED IN BAGS inside the CWD-provided grey 95-gallon trash cart.

Place all trash items out no later than 7:00 am for pickup between 7:00 am and 7:00 pm on your service day. Please ensure the trash containers and the recycle cart are separated by at least three (3) feet, and three (3) feet away from obstacles such as mailboxes, fences, gas meters, and drainage ditches. Position the cart with wheels toward the residence, ensuring there is a 16-foot clearance above the cart.

ASL Guidelines

Trash is serviced by Automated Side Load (ASL) trucks. ASL trucks must have adequate space in the street or alleyway for the truck to line up to a cart and allow for the truck’s arm and claw to extend to retrieve the cart. In order to protect your property, the driver will not service your cart(s) if vehicles or other obstacles are positioned too close to the cart(s).  Important: please allow a 16′ vertical clearance to ensure there is no damage to property and carts can be serviced.
