About Us 

The Solid Waste Division of the Public Services Department operates under the direction of the Assistant Director of Public Services. There are nine members of the Solid Waste team, led by a Solid Waste Superintendent. This division provides approximately 8,528 households with weekly (One and Done) pickup of garbage, recycling, and yard debris.

All carts must be placed curbside prior to 7:00 am on each scheduled day, three feet apart from any obstruction, and with space between carts.  In addition, Village ordinance requires residents to return all carts to storage by the end of the collection day.

Do you have some items that won't fit in your cart? You can drop those off at the Moore County Landfill.  For a list of the Moore County Landfill Convenience Sites, click here.
