Starting today, customers receiving curbside solid waste collection can request another bright green cart to assist with yard waste needs. This change increases yard waste cart capacity to 190 gallons every two weeks. Regular customers who request a second yard waste cart will still have the option to place up to 15 biodegradable paper bags and up to five stick bundles at the curb for collection.
How to request a second cart:
- Contact the Customer Service Center at 919-996-3245
- Complete the online web form
A second yard waste cart requires a fee of $50 and increases the monthly yard waste service fee from $4.90 per month to $6.90 per month. Yard Waste cart delivery may take up to eight weeks. Customers won’t see the increase to the yard waste monthly service fee until the cart is delivered. You can begin to use your new cart as soon as you receive it!
