You can sign up online to get text, email or phone calls to receive collection reminders.   You can also get them embedded into your calendar or can print the annual calendar.  These are all available at https://cityofracine.org/SolidWaste/LookUp/

You can download the calendar at the above website.   Calendars and up to (10) stickers can be picked up at the following sites:

1. City Clerk’s Office, City Hall, 730 Washington Avenue Room 103
2. Pearl Street Facility, 9^th & Pearl Street
3. Department of Public Works Field Office, 800 S. Marquette Street
   
   

Residents are only allowed to place bags out in addition to a full cart.  If the cart is not utilized for collection, we will not collect bags. 

You are required to provide a clear path to the items after a snow storm for the safety of our collectors.

HBI stickers are only to be used for Bulky Items that won’t fit in the cart, such as furniture, mattresses and prepared carpet.  Items such as the (3) 42 gallon bags allowed do not require the HBI sticker.

This provides a more cost effective means to provide the same waste collection services and reallocates personnel to provide the needed street maintenance services. 

You either exceeded the maximum allowance of 5 HBI’s per week, the item was not eligible for collection or you didn’t have it placed out for collection by 7:00 a.m.

You can bring the excess HBI materials to the Pearl Street Facility, at no charge, Tuesday through Saturday between the hours of 10:00AM and 5:45P.M.  You can also hold them and place them out the following week as long as they have the HBI stickers on them at that time.  

We no longer collect branches curbside.  You need to bring them to the Pearl Street Facility, at no charge, Tuesday through Saturday between the hours of 10:00AM and 5:45P.M.  

Disabled and elderly customers may apply to have their solid waste and recycling collected from their back door if no one in their household is physically able to carry their solid waste to the curb line or alley for collection.
