All residential trash routes in the City of Lawrenceville are serviced on Friday. Paid water and sewer service are necessary to be eligible for trash collection service, which is included with monthly billing. Trash must be curbside by 6:00 am on your assigned day, and each residence should use the Republic trash containers. Collection may be a day late if a holiday falls on any day of the week.
Utilizing an automated truck for collection is more efficient and safer than using the standard rear end load collection vehicles. The utilization of the carts will also make trash day easy, neat and hassle free for you.
Our automated trucks operate a mechanical arm which wraps around the trash cart and empties the contents into the top of the truck. Our carts are specifically designed for this collection system. Please do not purchase extra containers at a local store as they will not work with our system.
One trash cart will be delivered to each home. If you find that you have additional trash and require a second container, please contact City Hall (618-943-2116) for guidance on the possibility of obtaining an additional cart.
To ensure driver safety and orderly waste collection, it is necessary to follow the procedures below correctly:
Basic procedures:
- On trash day, please place your cart within four feet of the roadway.
- Please be sure there are at least three feet of clearance between your cart and any other object, i.e., mailboxes, trees, vehicles, guide wires.
- Please do not overload your trash cart. If you find that you consistently have extra bags, contact City Hall so we may help to resolve the issue.
- Place the cart at the curb with the wheels away from the street. This will prevent damage to your cart lid as well as enable your lid to close after emptying.
- All trash needs to be bagged and held within the trash cart. Should you have any unusual items, please contact City Hall for assistance.
Please note that NO ELECTRONIC DEVICES ARE ALLOWED IN THE TRASH. This includes but is not limited to: TVs, computers, monitors, key boards, etc.
Should you have any questions, you may call City Hall at (618-943-2116).
