Refuse Savannah's Garbage Fines!

The City has begun cracking down on ne'er-do-well taxpayers who leave their trash cans out
past the stated time. Forget, or leave them out too long, and you will receive a $15.00 fine that will be attached to your water bill.


City regulations state that "carts should be placed at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on the morning of scheduled collection, but no earlier than 5:00 p.m. the day before collection and removed by 7:00 p.m. the day of collection with the exception of holidays." This applies to both garbage and recycling carts.

Here is a copy of the ticket you will receive, courtesy of one of your neighbors who has already been fined,
and a copy of the 2011 garbage and recycling pick-up schedule.



The ticket can be enlarged to see the extensive list of violations you could possibly commit, as well as the necessary contact info for the Savannah Sanitation Bureau.
