Resident Garbage Cans

Please contact Public Works at 305-795-2210 with any questions.

Residents are responsible for providing their own garbage cans. Each property is allowed two 30 gallon cans with secure locking lids. Garbage cans should be durable.

Garbage cans should be placed in your alleyway for pick-up by 6:30 AM on your collection day. If you do not have an alleyway, please have cans accessible in the side or backyard for pick-up.

  • Place only bagged household garbage in cans - no tiles, concrete or bricks.
  • Close the lids securely.
  • Containers should not exceed 50 pounds when full or they will not be picked up!

Preparing Your Bulk Trash for Pick-Up

Bulk trash should be placed in your alley by 7:00 AM on your area pick-up day.

Each day the Sanitation Division will designate an area for Bulk Pick-up. While staff will work to complete pick-up in that area on the designated day(s), inclement weather, mechanical or other issues may hinder pick-up in that area for that day.
