"PAY AS YOU THROW" REFUSE PROGRAM
The City of Bellefontaine offers a "Pay as You Throw" Program for our residents. By continued recycling efforts you will reduce the amount of refuse that costs you on your monthly billings and which will also result in less refuse going into our local landfill. Many of the items that we commonly throw away are recyclable; paper, cans, bottles, magazines, plastics, glass jars, cardboard, paper/chip board and household batteries. All residents of the City of Bellefontaine are required to subscribe to an option level of refuse service. You may use either the City authorized blue trash bag, a regulation size purchased container or a leased 90-gallon container. Additional refuse that will not fit into your container can always be set out in addition in the authorized City blue trash bag. A current sticker will be provided for your purchased container and must be attached in order to maintain regular pickup service. If your refuse is not property contained - it will not be disposed of. Refuse will need to be set out on your regular trash day before 7:00 AM (may be set out the previous evening). All large items such as furniture and household appliances to be disposed of will require a bulky item tag that is available for purchase in the Utilities Office. Currently the City of Bellefontaine has contracted with Republic Waste Company (aka Allied Waste Company) to provide our refuse service. Refuse containers must be kept in a clean and sanitary condition. All refuse in containers should be bagged and contain no health hazardous materials. Let us all work together for a cleaner, safer community. If you have any questions regarding your refuse service, please call the City of Bellefontaine Utility Department at (937) 592-3561.
Thank you for your considerate support!
