The Department of Public Works (DPW) picks up residential trash once per week at each residence in the City of Seymour. The City provided 96-gallon gray toters to each city resident in September 2009 when the automated trash system (Robo Trash) was put in place. Your gray toter must not contain any hazardous materials such as flammable liquids, human or animal waste, syringes, ammunition, paints, used motor oil, etc.
ALL TRASH IN THE GRAY TOTER MUST BE BAGGED!
The $3.00 per month fee on your sewer bill is a landfill disposal fee for your regular household trash.
DPW workers will take two large items (such as sofa and chair) per week, at no charge, if placed out with your regular trash. Trash must be set out by 7:00 a.m. the day of your trash collection.
The Department of Public Works will begin leaf pick-up in mid-October.
Updated Recycling Info:
You can now recycle newspaper bags, case wrap (the plastic that keeps water bottles from falling out of the box), and dry cleaning bags with your grocery bags. Just stuff all into one bag and tie shut before recycling.
