Garbage and Recycling

GREAT NEWS: YOU NO LONGER NEED A GARBAGE CALENDAR  STARTING JANUARY 1, 2019 GARBAGE AND RECYCLING WILL BE PICKED UP WEEKLY

September, 2018, Chairman’s article

There will be major changes in our garbage and recycling contract with John’s Pickup Service beginning January 1, 2019.

Many residents have requested a weekly pickup of recyclables. We anticipate that this will increase recycling and be an additional convenience. Along with the weekly recyclables pickup beginning in 2019, there is also a provision for pickup of certain electronic items. (Certain restrictions apply. Please see information in this newsletter and on our website.) Another major change is that there will no longer be town wide pickup of bulk items on the third Friday of each month. If you have a bulk pickup, you will need to call John’s at least 72 hours in advance. There is no additional charge. This is part of the new contract and you will only be allowed one bulk pickup per month. This is a major convenience for those who don’t wish to wait a month to dispose of their bulk items. You will need to remember, however, that one electronic item will be considered your bulk pickup for the month.

2019 costs to our residents are as follows: $12.29 per unit per month for disposal service and $5.20 per unit per month for recycling service, for a total yearly cost per unit of $209.88. The contract also includes twice a year special yard waste drop off at the Town Hall.

Kettle Moraine School District will have a Referendum on the April 2, 2019 Election
