Most residents have a 90-gallon green garbage container collected at the curb. Please remember:

• Collection times vary. To ensure service, set out your containers by 6 a.m. on collection day.
• Set containers at the curb with the lids opening toward the street. Please leave at least three feet between containers.
• Place the containers three feet away from parked cars, mailboxes and other obstacles. Allow 15 feet clearance from tree branches, utility wires, etc. above the container.
• Do not leave your containers at the curb on non-service days. Containers must be pulled back onto private property on non-service days.

In some areas, up to three households share 300-gallon containers in alleys. Please remember:

• Do not move or relocate the container.
• Do not place bulky items, such as furniture, building materials, dirt or rocks, in or next to the containers.
• Please use only your share of space in the container. Each resident is allotted 1/3 of the alley container.
• Please report any damaged alley containers by calling Customer Service at 520-791-3171.
• Remember, the alleys are not to be used for storage of bulky items unless your scheduled brush and bulky collection is within the upcoming two weeks.

• For safety, keep children away from refuse containers and collection trucks.
• Do not overfill containers. Overfilled containers create litter and may not be serviceable.
• Please bag and tie garbage to prevent odors and flies.
• The City will only service containers provided by the City. Do not set out garbage in other cans, boxes or receptacles.
• Containers are assigned to the property address; please leave the containers for the next resident if you move.
• Do not use garbage containers for dirt, concrete, building materials, large carpet rolls, hazardous or toxic waste, unwrapped animal waste, large items such as furniture, water heaters, etc.
• Never place hot ashes, cinders, coals or other burning material in garbage containers.
• Only place yard waste in the container that fits with the lid closed (no tree limbs or branches).
