Please put your carts and bins in the street against the curb. The arrow on the lid should face the street, and the cart handles should face your house.
Place the carts at least three feet away from other carts, extra trash, parked cars, fences, trees, mailboxes, etc. Be careful not to block the bike lane—even trash carts should share the road with Eugene’s bikers! For a visual guide, download this handy PDF.
Our friendly drivers start their day early, so please have your carts and bins out by 6:00 a.m. on your scheduled pickup day—or the night before, if you’re not a morning person! We aim to come by around the same time each pickup, but with crazy weather, unpredictable traffic, and potential mechanical mishaps, your pickup time might vary from week to week.
Once the truck has come and gone, don’t forget to move your empty bins & carts off the curb by midnight in line with local ordinances.
Remember, all your carts go out on the same day of the week. Your big green and little red recycling containers will be emptied every week. We pick up your gray yard debris cart every other week. And the blue trash cart is emptied either weekly or biweekly, depending on your service plan. Check your collection schedule here.
Get the ideal capacity for your household. Choose from a 35, 65, or 95-gallon heavy-duty roll cart. Anytime you need to up your capacity or downsize, get in touch—our team will set you up with the ideal size for your needs.
Reducing Eugene's carbon footprint is our promise to our community, so you can rest easy knowing that your items will be picked up on time and handled responsibly. You sort it out, we’ll handle the rest!

Yes! Smaller (flattened) cardboard items can go right in the cart (so break down those boxes). But if you have a heap of cardboard, here’s what to do: break it down, cut it into pieces less than 3' x 3' (about the length of a guitar), and stack it next to your cart at the curb. Remember to chuck any non-recyclable packing material into the regular blue trash cart.
Your big 65-gallon green has plenty of space—fill it with just about everything you need to send to the recycling plant! The smaller red bin is for clean glass and certain recyclable fluids (in tightly sealed containers).
