Trash
When is trash collected?
The City of Hilliard collects residents’ trash, recycling and yard waste every Tuesday, unless it’s a specific holiday week (typically Memorial and Labor Days). Check the holiday schedule here.
What happens if my trash collection day is on a holiday?
If a holiday falls on Sunday, Monday or Tuesday, services will be delayed one day and we’ll collect your materials on Wednesday. If the holiday falls on a Saturday, there will be no change in the scheduled pick-up day.
Where should I place my trash for collection?
Place containers at the end of your driveway by 7 a.m. on the scheduled pick-up day.
Containers should not weigh more than 50 pounds. Do not place containers in the street. Place them on the apron or on the tree lawn closest to the street.
Put yard waste in brown paper bags or containers clearly marked with yard waste stickers, which are available at 3800 Municipal Way.
Do I have to pay to have my trash and recycling picked up?
Residents will receive a bill for trash and recycling collection in July and January. Senior discounts and hardship applications are available.
