The WCID 89 Board of Directors is excited to share some big news: every household in our District will soon receive upgraded trash and recycling carts. This decision reflects our ongoing commitment to keeping our neighborhoods clean, beautiful, and easy to maintain.

Why the Change?

For years, residents have been using a mix of personal trash cans, smaller bins, and leftover containers from past providers. This patchwork system has caused issues with windblown trash, inconsistent pickup, and limited recycling capacity.

By moving to uniform, larger carts for every home, we ensure:

  • Cleaner streets – Secure lids mean fewer bags flying around on pickup days.
  • More capacity – Bigger carts reduce overflow and improve collection efficiency.
  • Consistent service – Every household will have the same Best Trash carts, simplifying weekly collection.

🗑️ Trash Cart Upgrade

  • Each home will receive a new 95-gallon trash cart (black with a red lid).
  • Place the cart curbside with the handle facing the street, away from mailboxes and parked cars.
  • Trash collection days remain Tuesday and Friday. Please have carts out by 7:00 AM.
  • If you want your old trash can removed, label it “BASURA” and set it out on your service day. Best Trash will haul it away.

♻️ Recycling Cart Upgrade

  • Each home will receive a new 48-gallon recycling cart (green).
  • Recycling will continue to be collected every Friday by 7:00 AM.
  • Use this cart for cardboard, paper, plastics #1–#5 & #7, aluminum, tin cans, and glass bottles/jars.
  • The new cart is for recyclables only — it will not be emptied as trash.
  • If you currently use a small recycling bin, please place it curbside on Friday, August 29 for removal. If you miss this date, set it out again on Friday, September 5.

Delivery Schedule

  • Carts will be delivered August 27–30.
  • Crews plan to deliver approximately 1,200–1,500 carts each day until the rollout is complete.
  • Please be patient as the process works through the community.

What This Means for WCID 89

These new carts are more than just containers — they’re a step toward:

  • Reducing litter across our subdivisions
  • Improving the curbside appearance of our neighborhoods
  • Making recycling easier and more effective

The WCID 89 Board is proud to make this upgrade possible, and we’re confident residents will see the benefits right away.
