In July 2008, Richmond Sanitary Service (RSS) began its new and improved services to all Piedmont residents.

 
  • Semi-automated waste collection with new carts
  • Each residential customer has received new wheeled carts for garbage, organics (yard wastes and food scraps) and recycling, and a food scrap pail for the kitchen. Additional recycling and organics carts and food scrap pails are available upon request.

Customers no longer have to buy garbage or yard waste cans. The new wheeled carts are easy to move around and have hinged lids that can’t get lost or fly away and are designed to keep out dogs, rodents and rain. Sturdy molded plastic construction makes for a durable cart that resists denting and cracking or tipping in the wind. Carts that are damaged in the course of collection, in need of repair or are stolen will be replaced at no charge.

If you choose curbside service, please remember that all carts (garbage, recycling and organics) must be set out in the parking strip or just behind the sidewalk by 6:45 am on collection day. By City ordinance, containers must be retrieved and placed out of public view by 12:00 midnight on collection day.
