Residential polycarts and yard trimmings are collected weekly. The pickup schedules are below. A holiday that falls on a weekday delays pickup by the number of days City Hall is closed. Schedule changes are announced in the Early County News, in News & Notices, and on the city’s Facebook page.
Recycling bins are located at Early County Middle School on Columbia Street and in the Piggly Wiggly parking lot on North Main Street.
Large items
Residents are responsible for taking large furniture, appliances and large yard debris to the transfer station at 43 Malone Road, Monday to Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
What the city does not collect
The city does not pick up items placed by the street. Please remove them within five days; failure to do so may result in the penalties in Chapter 1, Sections 1.7 and 1.8 of the Code of Ordinances. Items not collected include household furniture, appliances, tires, batteries, construction debris, oil, grease and chemicals.
