SYLACAUGA, Ala. – In February, the city signed a new garbage collection contract with GFL Environmental of Alpine, ending service with the previous provider, Republic Services.
Inside of that new contract, there was no increase in citizens’ $17 monthly fee that includes pickup of curbside yard waste by the city’s street department.
The monthly fee remains at $5 for every additional can for a household.
GFL will begin weekly pickup on April 1, 2021, under its three-year agreement.
New cans are being distributed to each household now through April 1. Each new can has a list of instructions, including the trash pickup schedule. Republic will pickup the old cans after March 31.
