Jan 2023 District J Heavy Trash Collection

Friends,

We are excited to announce the second installment of District J Private Trash Day, which will take place Saturday, January 14, 2023. This door-to-door concierge service is being provided to District J in response to residents who are in need of heavy trash and tree waste removal. Private Trash Day is a supplement to the work done by the city’s Solid Waste Department and does not replace your regular city schedule. We understand on-time pick up has been a challenge for the city, so this is our office’s way of ensuring you will receive reliable heavy trash service. We are the only area of the city doing this initiative, and it is only for District J residents.

To participate in the program, registration is required.  If you do not register your home for heavy pick up, your waste will not be discarded, and you will be responsible for removing those items from the curb.

Waste removal workers will collect up to 8 cubic yards of waste for each registered home (about the size of two pickup truck beds or a 5-passenger mini-van). All tree shrubs must be bundled or bagged in order to be collected, and waste must be put out on the curb by 7:00 a.m. on Saturday, January 14th.

This private curb-side service is limited to 1,500 residents and will be on a first-come, first-served basis. We encourage you to please share this information with all your neighbors to enhance awareness. 

Please note, below is a list of unacceptable items to discard. Any items on this list will not be picked up:

Household Garbage (food, drinks, liquids/chemicals)
