TROY — The city of Troy will hold its annual Spring Neighborhood Clean-up Week from April 4 through April 8, 2022. During this week, residents will be allowed to dispose of additional trash, and yard waste disposal rules will be relaxed.

From April 4 to 8, the Refuse Department will collect trash exceeding the capacity of the trash cart. Any additional trash must be bagged. Please place those extra bags a few feet away from the cart so that the city’s automated refuse trucks can empty your cart. Cardboard and items placed in boxes will not be collected. Please visit www.troyohio.gov/trash for guidelines on items that are too big to bag.

Brush and yard waste rules will also be relaxed during Spring Neighborhood Clean-up Week. For April 4 to 8 only, brush and branches do not need to be bundled or bagged. Grass clippings and leaves must be placed in a biodegradable bag. Place your yard waste on the street near the curb, not on the curb lawn.

Items classified as recyclable should be placed in the recycling container for collection. Check www.troyohio.gov/trash to review recycling guidelines.

For questions regarding Spring Neighborhood Clean-up Week, please call the Central Maintenance and Service Facility at 937-335-1914.
