FAQ’s

The only days your garbage, recycling and yard debris drivers do not work are Thanksgiving, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. If your service day falls on or after one of these holidays, your services will be delayed by one day.

When our region is faced with inclement weather, we will do the best we can to safely provide service. If we are able to, we will attempt to start our routes later than normal– please leave material at the curb. If we cannot safely operate our fleet, service may be delayed. In the result of a delay or cancellation, we will also send out a call notification to all customer’s involved detailing further instruction. If instructed, you may also follow this GUIDE on how to place out extra waste if your pickup day is delayed.

Due to the changes in the global recycling markets the costs associated with processing recyclable material has become considerably higher. Clark County Council has approved an amendment that allows for a per ton rate to be charged on collected curbside recycling material. This charge will be passed to the customers through a recycling processing surcharge. The surcharge will be evaluated annually to encompass the on going changes in the recycle market conditions.
