FAQs

When does my trash and yard waste have to be set out?

All trash and yard waste must be set out no later than 7:30am on your scheduled pick-up day.

What if all of my trash will not fit in the trash cart?

If you receive a 35 gallon trash cart based on your current sanitation rate and it is not large enough for your household trash on a weekly basis, you may contact the Lancaster Sanitation Department to request the larger 96 gallon trash cart and your monthly sanitation rate will be increased to $13.50 per month. Otherwise, residents may continue to set out their trash following the current guidelines https://www.ci.lancaster.oh.us/816/Trash-Cart-Guidelines . The Lancaster Sanitation Department is requiring residents to use the city-issued trash cart first before using additional trash cans.

Where do I place my trash cart for pickup?

All trash carts will be delivered to the front of the property; however, your trash pickup location will remain the same.
