❗️❗️ We have had a lot of people complaining that our hours are posted wrong on Google. I’m not sure how to change those or who to get ahold of to change those, but these are our hours and prices. Please don’t take it out on the staff, call before coming if you have any questions. Thanks!

We invite all community members to join us on Tuesday, June 2, at 6:30 p.m. in the FJSHS Theater for an exciting and informative evening focused on the Capital Bond Project!

Enjoy hamburgers and refreshments while learning more about this important investment in the future of our schools and community. We’ll share project details, discuss opportunities ahead, and answer any questions you may have.

This is a great opportunity to get informed, get involved, and be part of the conversation as we look toward the future of USD 484. We hope to see you there!

Monday- City Business Hoppers
Tuesday- 20th st to 8th st.
Wednesday- 8th st. to South Mound Rd
Thursday- All of South Side
Friday- City Business Hoppers

*New Residents-Please purchase trash receptacles that are no larger than 35gal. Please be sure they have lids. NO METAL DRUMS FOR TRASH.
*Please have all trash at the pickup location by 7:00 AM on your pickup day.
* We ask that new receptacles have a few small holes drilled into the bottoms for water drainage so the crew can move the receptacle without strain.
* If your trash is not out by the time the Crew reaches your residence, we will NOT go back to get it.
* If you have alley access, please be sure the trash is at the alley. If it is anywhere else on the property, the Crew will NOT go onto Private Property to gather your trash.
* If you do not have alley access, please place your trash at the end of the driveway. If it is anywhere else the City Crew will NOT go onto Private Property to gather your trash.
* ALL TRASH MUST BE IN BAGS
Loose trash will not be taken. If you have animals in your area that get into the trash, we ask you keep the lid shut and be sure everything is bagged. The City Crew will not pick up trash throughout your yard if animals have gotten into the trash. If you have loose trash and it has blown throughout your yard due to storms or high winds the City Crew will not be responsible for the cleanup of the loose trash. If you know you have animal issues place the trash out closer to the pickup time of 7:00 AM. Thank you and we look forward to serving you.
Any questions or concerns, contact Shane Glover between the hours of 7:30AM – 3:00PM at 620.378.3161 EXT. 1
