Solid Waste
The City contracts with Al, Clawson Disposal, INC (ACDI) for solid waste services.
Residential Services Information
- Place your cart at the curb by 6:00 a.m. on your service day.
- Ensure the lid is closed completely to prevent litter, odor, and spillage. Do not stack plastic bags or materials on top of the cart.
- Leave space in the cart, so it can be emptied. Tightly packing your cart or placing objects that lodge against the sides can impede service.
- Use plastic bags for your waste and periodically clean out your container with bleach and water. Add 1/4 cup of baking soda to your cart weekly when it's clean and dry to help remove odors.
- Bind brush bundles (35 lbs or less) with rope and cut into 3 to 4-foot lengths for pickup.*
*If you have cart-only service, there is an additional fee for brush pickup. Please call 512-930-5490 to pay for this service and schedule pickup.
