City of West Allis issued the following announcement on Feb 16.
Did you know our City-issued garbage carts are on sale? Order now until May 31 to get 50% off the regular purchase price! Any home in West Allis that does not have a City-issued garbage cart must have one by June 1; and don’t worry, if you are one of these households, you were notified with a mailer on this change earlier this year.
You can choose either the 96-gallon or 64-gallon cart, and you may have up to 2 garbage carts per household (you can have up to 2 recycling carts too, in case you were wondering). You can learn more, and purchase here: www.westalliswi.gov/garbagecart. For the 96-gallon or 64-gallon garbage cart respectively, find these at sale price for $29 and $26.
While this offer is available to West Allis households, this is part of a larger initiative from the City to have the highest quality containment system in our neighborhoods. Under our 2022 budget initiative, Enforcement and Nuisance Control Activities, one of the City’s goals is to standardize the type of garbage carts used.
Residents are encouraged to repurpose their old garbage carts whenever possible. Possible uses include storage for yard and garden equipment, compost, rainwater collection, storage for pet supplies, storage for sports equipment, and storage for firewood. Residents can also have their garbage carts recycled at the City Dump located at 6300 W. McGeoch Ave. If you purchase the cart online, there is an option on the form to have Public Works remove your old cart(s) for free when they deliver the new cart.
Also, our 2022 Garbage and Recycling Booklet is online for you to download and keep on hand. Print it out and stick it somewhere obvious so that it is top of mind. View the Rules and Regulations Guide (PDF) here: www.westalliswi.gov/DocumentCenter/View/18382/2022-Garbage-and-Recycling-Guide
