CITY OF ROCKFORD RESIDENTS

 GARBAGE/RECYCLING DISPOSAL AND RATE CHANGES

 

MOVING FROM ORANGE GARBAGE BAGS TO NEW GARBAGE AND RECYCLING CARTS WILL BE ROLLING OUT THIS FALL!!

 

The City of Rockford residents will begin rolling out new garbage and recycling carts this fall.  Rockford residents will receive one 65-gallon refuse cart and one 96-gallon recycling cart. These carts are designed to be lifted mechanically by garbage trucks and feature a permanently attached lid and handle that allows for easy maneuvering.   Jendro will be delivering these carts sometime this fall to each residential dwelling.

 

NEW MONTHLY GARBAGE RATE – OCTOBER 1, 2024:

  • $25/MONTHLY RATE – INCLUDES GARBAGE AND RECYCLE CARTS

OTHER THINGS TO KNOW:

  • Garbage will still be picked up weekly on Monday’s, but recycle will now be EVERY OTHER week. (not 2nd & 4th week like previous schedule)
  • If you fill your 65 gallon garbage cart and still have more garbage to put out, you may purchase orange garbage bags at City Hall and YesWay for the same price of $2.00 per bag
  • If your cart becomes damaged and needs replaced, contact Jendro directly at 1-800-232-3525
  • The City of Rockford is not responsible for carts. Each cart received will be specifically numbered to each residential dwelling.
