Putting Your Trash Out For Pickup

Unless approved by the city, trash must be placed in the alley behind your residence. Trash must be placed at the alley right of way. Trash left in the yard or in enclosures set back from the alley right of way will not be picked up. When placing your trash out, please follow the following guidelines:

  • Trash must be out for pickup by 8:00am on your scheduled pickup day for guaranteed pickup.
  • Place all trash (except large/bulky items) in a trash bag and tie the bag when placing it out for pickup.
  • If trash containers are used, they must have an air tight, water proof lid and be no larger than 32 gallons in size, unless approved by the city. Loose, unbagged trash in large, oversized trash containers will not be picked up.

The following items will not be accepted by the Marion County Transfer Station and will not be picked up by the trash truck:

  • Yard waste (Grass, leaves, limbs, hay, bushes, etc.
  • Hazardous materials (flammables, chemicals, car batteries, wet paint, etc. Note: empty paint cans or paint cans in which the paint is dried up is acceptable)
  • Large amounts of construction material (boards, shingles, drywall, etc. Note: small amounts of these items are acceptable)
  • Refrigerators, freezers, etc. (Note: you may take these items to the transfer station yourself if the freon has been removed. The permit that is required for the transfer station is available at the city offices or in the online documents library.
  • Tires (Note: you may take tires to the transfer station yourself and they will accept them for a charge)
