TRASH REMOVAL GUIDELINES AND GENERAL INFORMATION

Collection begins very early in the morning. Please place your trash at the curb the night before collection day.
Containers not acceptable for trash collection are: Chemical barrels, 55 gallon drums, any container having a capacity over 34 gallons. All containers must have proper handles and lids. Please do not attach lids to your containers with ropes or wires. Trash containers should not exceed our 30 pound weight limit. We will not service any containers larger than 34 gallons--please replace these containers.
Weekly Limits: One cart and one bag not exceeding 33 gallons in size. This applies to our customers, utilizing our 90 gallon trash program.
Bulk Items: Furniture, appliances, lead pipes, box springs and mattresses, construction material, carpet, etc. require a special pick-up. Please call our office to make prior arrangements. A fee may apply.
Holidays: New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas Day are the only holidays that will affect your regular pick-up day. If a holiday falls before or on your pick-up day, your pick-up will be one day late. If a holiday falls on Sunday, it will not affect our normal collection schedule.
A new state law took effect April 1, 1995. The new law prohibits the landfilling or incinerating of yard waste in the State of Michigan. Yard debris such as grass clippings, leaves, earth, sticks and brush will no longer be accepted. All trash carts or cans containing any yard debris will be rejected. We will notify you at a later date of our plans for a grass clipping and leaf removal program(if available in your area). Contact your village, city or township for brush removal.
Unacceptable items for curbside collection will be, but are not limited to, stumps, motor vehicles and parts, gasoline, tires, appliances containing freon(refrigerators, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, freezers), all medical waste, biohazard, asbestos, and hazardous waste.
We will accept used motor oil. Place it in a tightly sealed plastic container, label it clearly and place it next to your trash can on collection day. Please do not place motor oil in your trash containers.
All paints must be dried out or solidified before disposal. Latex and oil base paints can be absorbed with kitty litter or oil dry; small amounts of paint can be dried out by leaving the lid off for a couple of days.
Containers are available for construction jobs and clean-up projects. They are an easy and convenient way to dispose of large amounts of rubbish and trash. Call Kuerth's at 231-744-4967 or 1-800-332-3496 for more information.
Kuerth's Disposal will be responsible for the replacement of recycling bins and carts which are damaged by normal use. It is the customer's responsibility to protect the containers from loss or damage. If it is determined that a container was lost or damaged due to carelessness on the part of the customer, the customer will be charged a replacement fee of $25 per recycle bin and/or $90 per cart.
Please remove all carts and bins from the curb as soon as possible after collection.
