HOUSEHOLD GARBAGE The City will pick-up only RESIDENTIAL YARD WASTE
Griffin Waste Services picks up household garbage. Griffin Waste will not pick up any kitchen appliances of any size, yard waste, construction debris, or deceased animals. Griffin Waste Services will only pick up the household garbage that will fit into the rebel. The contracted garbage service will only pick up the rebel plus 2 garbage bags. If you have additional garbage bags on a weekly basis, you need to get another rebel at your address. If you have additional garbage on occasion, you can dispose of it at Rest E-Z.
For the disposal of bulk and construction items please contact Rest E-Z to find out what items they will
accept and the charges. --- Their number is (229) 686-2891.
We will NOT pick up bulk items:
• Sofas, Bikes, • Mattresses, • Whole Trees, • Stoves, • Boxes, • Tires, • Refrigerators, • Water,
• Heaters, • Etc.
YARD WASTE Please use the following guidelines when setting out yard waste: DO NOT BAG
leaves or trimmings. Please place in a net pile on the edge of your property. Do not put it in the street because it will clog the storm drainage system. Limbs should not excee 6 feet in length and should not weigh more than 50lbs. They should be stacked neatly in an open area that is not under a power line or tree limb. If you use a professional yard service, then your service should include
hauling off any yard waste.
We thank you for your efforts to keep your corner of our City clean.
If you have any questions or suggestion regarding our garbage service, please direct them
