Guide sections
Use the City's collection lookup or 630-CITY to confirm the schedule. Jacksonville asks residents to schedule tires and appliances separately, so do not assume they can join an ordinary bulk pile without a request.
List furniture, carpet, fencing and appliances individually and check the current preparation instructions. If items need carrying from inside, request that work explicitly when comparing private removal.
For small homeowner projects, the City lists 1 cubic yard weekly on garbage day in the non-automated City and Meridian areas, or 2 cubic yards every other week on bulk day in the automated Waste Pro area.
Individual pieces must stay within the published dimensions and weight limit. Check preparation before set-out. Contractor debris must be removed by the contractor; the homeowner allowance does not cover that load.
Check the City's yard-waste instructions for the actual vegetation and quantity. Describe branches, stumps, soil and removed fencing separately rather than calling the entire pile yard waste.
For a hired landscaping job, agree who removes the debris in the work scope. After a storm, check current City notices before relying on any special collection; the existence of a storm does not itself confirm a pickup arrangement.
A larger staged project needs a loading and placement plan. Send photos of the container position or truck access, identify heavy material and ask for accepted contents and weight limits.
When no price is displayed, Wasteonix can review the job manually. Include the address, service-area information, material list and dates. Confirm the price and availability before booking, and check the City's separate hazardous-waste route for products excluded from ordinary collection.
