| The Miami-Dade Department of Solid Waste Management provides residential garbage, trash and recycling collection service to unincorporated Miami-Dade County residents and residents of the cities of Aventura, Cutler Bay, Doral, Miami Gardens, Miami Lakes, Palmetto Bay, Pinecrest, Sunny Isles and Sweetwater. Residents have a wide variety of waste collection services. By using them correctly, residents can keep their neighborhoods clean.
Automated Twice Weekly Garbage and Trash Collection
Each week on your waste collection days, wheel your EZGo Cart to the curb by 7 a.m. Remove it once your waste is collected. Remember to place all garbage and trash inside the EZGo Cart. Garbage and trash not containerized will not be collected.
Twice Weekly Manual Garbage and Trash Collection
Some residential waste collection customers receive manual garbage services. These households do not use EZGo waste carts for garbage collection. Manual collection customers can set out cans (up to 30 gallons) and tied plastic bags by no later than 7 a.m. on your twice-weekly collection days. Trash, including yard clippings, must be canned, bagged or bundled in lengths of up to four feet using twine, rope, or duct tape. Each can, bag or bundle must weigh less than 50 pounds.
