Please bag your trash before placing it in your trash cart to assist in keeping the container clean and sanitary, as well as to help prevent litter on windy days. You are responsible for keeping your cart in a clean, sanitary condition at all times. If a repair is needed to your cart, please contact Waste Services so that it can be scheduled and completed by City staff.
