Trash & Recycling
Trash Collection
Trash collection is privatized through a bidding process and contracts with a private firm to provide collection services. Residential pick up is scheduled one time per week. The trash collection provider issues two large totes in which to place your trash for hauling. Trash must be placed inside the totes for pick up.
To determine your area's trash collection days, please call the Utility Billing office at 765-759-8521. All recycling is collected on Tuesdays.
Curbside Recycling
The Town of Yorktown provides once-a-week curbside recycling collection for Town residents. The recycling contractor provides each customer with a specially marked toter for recycling.
The following items can be placed into the recycling toter with the green lid:
- Plastics (Numbers 1-7)
- Glass (both clear and colored)
- All steel, tin, aluminum, and bi-metal cans and containers
- Paper/paperboard
- Junk mail
- Telephone books
- Magazines
- Catalogs
- Newspapers
- Corrugated cardboard
Note: Labels do not need to be removed from packaging but if possible please rinse and flatten cans when appropriate.
