- If you need further assistance please contact the the 3-1-1 Call Center by calling 311 or 816-513-1313.
Regular trash days: - All eligible households receive one collection of residential trash each week, and each neighborhood is assigned a regular collection day, Monday through Friday.
- Trash must be placed at the curb no later than 7 a.m. on the collection day, but not before 3 p.m. on the previous day. For example, it your trash day is Wednesday, trash must be placed at the curb before 7 a.m. on Wednesday, but not before 3 p.m. on Tuesday.
- Crews begin collecting trash at 7 a.m. on each collection day. We recommend that trash be set out between 6-7 a.m. to reduce littering that results when animals get into trash bags.
- Note: Trash should be set out by 7 a.m. on your trash day; even if you have observed this guideline, trash is usually picked up later in the day. That's because our crews sometimes have to deviate from their usual schedule.
Here are some of the basics of our trash collection service:
- Eligible residences: Single-family homes, duplexes, and apartments or other housing units in buildings that contain six or fewer units get weekly residential trash collection and weekly curbside recycling service. Apartments, condominiums and townhouses that are in buildings containing seven or more units have trash service provided by the owner or manager
- Trash tags: We pick up two bags per week per eligible household without tags. If you have more than two bags, buy a tag for each additional bag. Buy tags for $2 each at designated Westlake Ace Hardware and Price Chopper locations.
- What can and can't be put out for collection: Use these helpful guidelines.
- How to store and put out your trash: Use these useful tips
Neighborhoods with contract trash service:Several neighborhood associations contract for their own residential trash collection. Trash setout schedules and guidelines may be different in these areas.
