Recycling Guidelines

Bulky Waste

Bulk refuse items are items that do not fit in your cart; however, hazardous waste, construction material and remodeling debris will not be collected. Tree limbs need to be 4 feet by 2 feet bundled and tied. You are limited to six (6) cubic yards of bulky waste per collection. Tied and bundled brush may be set out in unlimited quantities.

Important! CWD does not provide standard pickup for commercial demolition, construction, nor remodeling debris. Household debris must be containerized to be eligible for pickup. The box or other disposable container must be no larger than 2′ x 2′ x 4′ and weigh no more than 50 pounds.

Bulk trash must be placed out curbside by Monday at 7 AM on the bulk collection week and will be collected by Wednesday evening of that week per the Curbside Bulk Trash Pick Up Schedule.

Note: on rare occasion, due to weather or construction conditions, some bulk will be picked up after Wednesday.
