Garbage service within the city limits of Bonney Lake, Milton, Orting, Puyallup, and Sumner
is mandatory. Each of these cities' municipal codes mandates that residents within the city
limits have active garbage service to encourage the cleanliness of the city and to prevent
accumulation of waste. According to these codes, (BLMC 8.04, MMC 13.12.010, OMC 5.2.1B, PMC
6.12.030, SMC 13.12.030) residents must subscribe to at least the minimum service level of
one 10-gallon garbage can serviced weekly.

Garbage Service
Standard service is for a can not exceeding 32-gallons in size. You will need to provide your
own 32-gallon garbage can with a secure fitting lid. Any garbage can larger than 32-gallons
will be picked up at the driver's discretion and may be charged an additional fee. Please note
any additional amount of trash exceeding your service level will be charged a fee. Your
container cannot be over 32 gallons in size or above 40 pounds in weight when full.
To encourage waste reduction, we also offer a 20-gallon weekly service option, or a 10-gallon weekly
service option. To receive the best possible service, please label your can(s) and any extra
bags with your house number to assist with accurate collection.
Please remember to have your can at its service location no later than 7 am on your service day.
