WASTE COLLECTION must be arranged by residents through through Waste Management of Kentucky (502-962-5000). Waste

for other waste collection services, including trash, yard waste, and one large item per week. Garbage must be
completely covered in order to inhibit rodent activity. Yard waste may be bagged, placed in containers, or
tied in 3 - 4 foot long bundles. It is advised that notice be given to Waste Management when a large item is to be picked
up. CAUTION: remove the door from refrigerators or other items which can cause entrapment.
Regular collection occurs on Tuesday, but may be delayed by one day in weeks that include a Federal holiday. Containers
may be placed at the front curb of your residence no earlier than noon on the day before pickup, and must be
removed from public view no later than noon the day following pickup. You can also get information related to Waste
