- Portage County Center for Hard to Recycle Items open Mondays and Thursdays from 10-2 and the 1st Monday of the month from 10-6.
- Other Ways to recycle unwanted materials
- Pick-up is each week on Thursday. Please return your trash containers to your house by Thursday evening.
- Please place trash in bags in the 95-gallon brown rolling carts within five feet of the roadway. These carts were supplied by Rumpke and should stay with the house if you move.
- Items that you CANNOT place in trash bins. [See Chemical and Hazardous Material Disposal below]. Stickers placed on bins if Rumpke couldn’t pick up your trash.
- Place your trash container(s) with the opening facing the street. This is the side that has the metal bar midway down the container.
- Rumpke uses a truck with a remote arm that is designed for moving items in trash cans. Items for pickup should fit into a trash can. This new remote arm requires a stronger grip on the container. Residents who have more trash than can fit into the green rolling can may want to consider using a can with reinforced sides to insure their trash container lasts longer.
- Large and bulky items that Rumpke will pick up for a fee
- If you place an item out for pick-up and the Village is charged for that item, you will receive a bill from the Village. Any unpaid bills will be placed on your property tax bill.
- Call Rumpke between 8-5 for matters relating to service, NOT VILLAGE OFFICIALS.
- NOTE: Village residents who independently contact Rumpke or another agency for additional trash removal services are individually responsible for any bills that result. Inquiries about whether or not the Village will pay for a particular service should be directed to the Clerk/Treasurer prior to contacting the company or utility for service.
