The standard allowance for multi-family dwelling is one 60-gallon black trash container & one 90-gallon blue container per dwelling unit, and one 90-gallon green yard trimming container per lot. Any additional capacity beyond the standard allowance is considered Extra Capacity. Extra Capacity containers are available for an additional charge. Black extra capacity trash containers are $5.00 per month per 30 gallons (containers come in 60 and 90 gallon capacity). Green extra capacity yard trimmings containers are $2.50 per month per 30 gallons. Blue extra capacity recycling containers are available at no additional charge.
