Home Trash
& Recycling Pickup

On your collection day, please ensure you roll your carts to the curb and position them curbside before 6 a.m. It's important not to overload the carts; their lids should close securely. Overfilled carts may incur additional fees. Please be certain that all trash and debris is placed inside the cart, as any waste left outside the cart may not be collected.

Although the list of permissible materials may differ based on your location, typically, the following items are allowed in your everyday trash for disposal in your curbside toter, bin, can, or container:

• Diapers
• Disposable razors
• Cactus and palm branches
• Cat litter and pet feces
• Glassware and ceramic dishes/cups
• Hoses and wire
• Juice boxes/pouches
• Non-fluorescent light bulbs
• Sheet glass (windows, mirrors, etc.)
• Foam cups or packing materials

For the responsible disposal of extra-large or bulky non-recyclable items, Tri-State Disposal offers a convenient Transfer Station. Bulky items are those that exceed the size or weight limits of your regular trash container or bin.

If your Tri-State Disposal container, tote, or bin for your home is missing or damaged, you can find information on how to request a repair or replacement here.

There's no need to schedule your bulk item pickup. On the day of your service, make sure your items are placed in the appropriate area next to your container.
