NEW Curbside Organics Collection Program Underway!
October 2, 2024
The City’s new curbside organics program launched on September 23 with weekly collection of organics now underway.
Your green bins can be filled with a wide rangeof organic material from food scraps, and yardwaste to kitty litter and soiled pizza boxes.
Please remember that to reduce wildlife conflicts, your bear-resistant organics carts still
need to be securely stored between collection days and should not be put out for pickup before 5am on collection day.
With the addition of organics collection, there are required changes to your collection days
for garbage and recycling. Keep the collection schedule included with your cart somewhere handy to refer to, or stop by City Hall to grab a fridge magnet with the 2024 schedule.
