Memphis Curbside Collection 2023.4.19

Memphis Curbside Collection is a waste management service provided by the City of Memphis that involves the collection of household garbage, recycling, and bulk waste directly from residents' curbs.

Curbside collection typically occurs once a week for garbage and recycling, with bulk waste collection scheduled on designated weeks.

Accepted items include household garbage, recyclables such as plastics, metals, and paper, as well as bulk items like furniture and appliances.

Items should be placed at the curb before 7:00 AM on your scheduled collection day. Ensure that recyclables are clean and sorted appropriately.

Hazardous waste cannot be collected curbside. Residents must take hazardous materials to designated drop-off centers or special collection events.

If your collection day falls on a holiday, services may be delayed or rescheduled. Check the City of Memphis website for updates on holiday schedules.

Typically, only designated containers are collected. Extra bags or boxes may not be picked up unless specified during bulk waste collection events.

You can report a missed collection by calling the City of Memphis sanitation services or submitting an online service request through their website.

Curbside collection services are typically funded through city taxes and fees, and residents do not incur additional charges for standard waste collection.

More information about curbside collection schedules, guidelines, and updates can be found on the City of Memphis official website or by contacting their sanitation division.
