Trash & Recycling

Residential Trash, Recycling & Household Hazardous Waste
Trash TruckResidential trash and recycling pickup is provided to single family households. New town homes, apartments, and condos are not included in the service and will need to arrange for their own pickup service. The Village contracts with Republic Services to provide weekly residential trash and every other week recycling pickup. This makes it convenient for the resident and reduces truck traffic in our neighborhoods.

Large items are picked up by Village staff and required to be scheduled by contacting Public Works at 303-708-6100. Residents are requested not to leave large items out with their regular trash until they have scheduled a large item pickup. Household hazardous waste pickup can be arranged by contacting At Your Door Special Collection, a Waste Management Company, at 800-449-7587. Electronic waste pickup is contracted with Unwanted Appliances and At Your Door Special Collection can be scheduled by calling Public Works at 303-708-6100.

Republic Services offers a carry out service for any resident who may be physically unable to move their solid waste and/or recyclables to the collection area. In order to accomplish this, the trash and recycle bins must be accessible to the collection driver and cannot be retrieved behind fences, in backyards, or in garages. Collection drivers will retrieve the waste and recyclables in the accessible area, empty them into the collection vehicle, and return the bin to the original area. The cost for a carry-out service from Republic Services is billed annually at a charge of $60 ($7 per month) and is made payable directly to Republic Services. If a resident qualifies under the American Disabilities Act, no charge for carry-out service will be applied.

Large Item Pick-up

You can arrange to have an odd-size or heavy item picked up by the Greenwood Village Public Works Department, weather permitting. The most popular items for large item pick-up are branches cut into sections of 10-foot lengths or less, unwanted furniture, mattresses, box springs, hot water heaters, and rugs. Please call Public Works at 303-708-6100 to schedule a pick-up before placing your items at the curb.The Public Works Department kindly requests your items be placed along the curb in the street out of the way of traffic or pedestrians. When possible, we ask that you refrain from leaving items on your driveway, so as not to damage your property. A snow and/or ice event could cause a delay with your pick-up although we will complete your request as soon as our snow and ice operations have concluded. 
Discarding used appliances can be accomplished by calling Public Works at 303-708-6100. The City of Greenwood Village contracts with Unwanted Appliances who services the Village on Wednesdays and Fridays, and recycles the appliances when possible. 
Hazardous materials, such as oil based paint, pesticides, gasoline, and propane tanks, etc., cannot be picked up by the trash company or through a large item pick-up. Village residents may call At Your Door Special Collection at 800-449-7587 to arrange a pick-up for household hazardous and electronic waste.
