Harter’s is collecting garbage and recycling on Thursdays and Fridays. The 2022 calendar with pick-up information is available at the Town Hall or on the Town’s website.
PLEASE do not put out your garbage and recycling totes days in advance of pick-up. According to Town Ordinances 328-24 and 328-25, totes are not to be be put out before 4:00 pm. of the day proceeding pickup and must be returned to their storage within 12 hours of pickup. Storage of totes is to be inside the garage, or behind or on the side of the house in such a location that they are not visible from the street.
Please remember to break down your recycling materials, so everything fits inside the tote and the lid can be fully closed. It is also important not to put recycling materials in plastic bags because they get caught in the recycling equipment. However, all garbage is to be placed in a bag or container and the lid can be closed completely.
Harter’s has asked that residents contact them directly regarding any issues with garbage or recycling collection. The company’s call center staff will then alert the appropriate driver of the issue, so it can be addressed as soon as possible. Harter’s business phone numbers are 715-446-5400 or 888-804-8556 or email arfoxvalley@harters.net

When will Yard Waste Pickup begin and for how long? The calendar does not address this issue that has been a hot issue during 2021.

Greetings Lee:
Yard waste collection ended in mid-November as noted on the 2021 Garbage and Recycling calendar. Yard waste was collected from April 12th thru November 15th.

Rich, how will yard waste be handled for 2022? What are the dates and what’s the collection method (yard waste paper bags)? Thanks!

Hi Chris:
We are still researching options for yard waste collection for 2022.

Hi Rich,
Any updates on yard waste pick up? Thanks!
Town of Algoma says
Hi Chris:
We are working with a company to pick up residential yard waste. If it all goes well, the Town Board will approve the agreement at their April Board meeting. Service would start the first part of May.
Thank you for your email,
Rich
Dan Williams says
What can I do about a missed Christmas tree pick up? I see the new garbage company was supposed to pick up trees on January 6 and I had my tree out already on January 4 and they missed me.
Town of Algoma says
Dan, did they pick up the tree on Friday, the 7th?

Tired Parent says
Hi there,
I’m wondering if after 9pm garbage pick up is going to be a regular occurrence? Some parts of the neighborhood of Scenic/Honey Creek didn’t have garbage or recycling picked up until 9pm or after on 01/20 and it woke my small children.
Town of Algoma says
Good Afternoon:
After a few weeks of defining collection routes, I think Harter’s now has settled in to a day schedule and later evening garbage and recycling pick-up should not be a problem.
Sorry for the inconvenience,
Rich
