Trash/Recycling Container Payment Page (* = Required field)

To be eligible to purchase a trash/recycling container, the buyer must be a District resident or own a home in the District that receives trash and recycling collection service from the Department of Public Works (DPW). DPW serves single family homes and buildings that consist of three residential units or less. Buildings with four or more residential units are served by commercial haulers and residents of those buildings must obtain trash/recycling containers themselves or from their commercial hauler.
