Village of Manchester, Michigan

The Village contracts with Allied Waste Services for weekly refuse collection.  The normal collection day is Wednesday.  Trash should be at the curbside by 7am. Refuse must be in watertight containers (cans or bags) not over 35 gallons in capacity and weigh no more than 50 pounds each. 

Bulky items such as furniture, white goods, box springs and mattresses will be picked up on your regular collection day.  Appliances containing refrigerants (freon) such as freezers, refrigerators, air conditioners, and dehumidifiers must have a tag showing freon removal by a certified technician before collection.

The following items are not included in weekly refuse pickup: construction and demolition debris, dead animals, hazardous materials, animal stable refuse, liquids, televisions, microwave ovens, computer monitors and compostable yard waste.

There will be no collection on these holidays: New Years Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day.  If a holiday falls on the Wednesday collection day or on the Monday or Tuesday immediately proceeding the collection day, the collection day will be Thursday.

For Calendar Year 2007, the holidays that effect pick-up dates are Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day.  The weeks of these holidays will have Thursday garbage pick-up.

Fees for garbage pick-up are charged to Village residents on their monthly sewer and water bill.

The village does not provide pick-up for yard wastes.  Residents may contract with Allied Waste individually for yard waste service by calling 1-800-589-9139.
