Yard Waste
Yard waste will be picked up on Fridays and should be put out on Thursday night (after 5pm). Yard waste should be put in brown paper leaf bags. Bags should contain no rocks and no dirt and should weigh less than 25lbs. YARD WASTE PUT OUT BEFORE 5PM ON THURSDAY EVENINGS WILL BE TICKETED. In order to help cut costs, we recommend that residents implement compost programs for their yard waste.
Yard waste must be in brown bags (not plastic), cannot weigh no more than 25 lbs, and cannot contain any dirt or rocks.
Snow Removal
In the event of an ice or snow storm, we become first responders charged with clearing the roadways for emergency vehicles and the general public. Please visit the RIEMA Winter Weather website to learn more. Should the Police Department declare a Parking Ban due to major snowfall, there are many parking lots throughout the city that residents can use for overnight parking as shown below. For more information please see here.
Special Items
Large items will not be picked up with your regular weekly trash. Click here for a list of items that can be picked up by special appointment upon payment of the corresponding fee.
Please call to schedule a pick-up appointment or complete this downloadable Request for Large Item Trash Pickup and either bring it or mail it to our High Street address atop the left-hand column of this web page.
Unfortunately, large items not listed above will not be picked up by the City. Residents are free to bring such unlisted large waste items to the Pawtucket Transfer Station or to the RI Central Landfill. Relevant charges will apply.
Hazardous Wastes
We all have hazardous waste lurking in our homes: oven cleaner, window cleaner, flea collars, nail polish remover, oil based paint in rusty old paint cans. Anything that has a skull and crossbones on the label, or the words “poison”, “hazardous”, “danger”, or cautions you to properly ventilate the area while cleaning, is household hazardous waste and must not be thrown in with your trash. Instead, please schedule an appointment to deliver such waste to the Rhode Island Resource Recovery Corporation at (401) 942-1430 ext. 241.
How You Can Help
Take pride in your sidewalk! Please sweep sidewalk debris into the street to be cleaned by the city's street sweeper. Additionally, remember during the winter months that property owners are required to shovel their sidewalk of all snow.
