    CITY OF OSHKOSH TRASH POLICY
​
The City of Oshkosh would like to remind all Garden County residents of the policies of the trash service that is provided and maintained by the City of Oshkosh.
 
The City Sanitation Shop/Recycling Center on West 2ndStreet is not to be used as a dump site.  Please do not put items on the ground, ONLY IN THE DUMPSTERS. If there is not sufficient room in the dumpster other arrangements need to be made with City Hall.  If placing large furniture in the dumpster try to break it down first.
 
The Recycling Center will accept broken down cardboard and newspapers.  These items go inside the building in the large boxes.  In the large container outside the building you can put tin cans, and plastics #1 through #7.
 
If you are cleaning out a house and have large amounts of trash, please make arrangements with City Hall to have an extra dumpster set at your residence.  There will be a charge for this dumpster.  The City does not have large roll-off dumpsters.  If a roll-off dumpster is needed, contact City Hall and they can help you find a provider.
 
ONLY household waste is allowed in any of the dumpsters.  Please no yard waste, tree limbs, tires, shingles, full paint cans, cement, auto batteries, hot or cold ashes.  
 
All paying trash customers are allowed to use the Yard Waste Site.  Items allowed at the Yard Waste Site are:  yard waste, tree branches, grass clippings, wood, metal, wire, ashes, and appliances.  Items must be separated.  There is a charge for freezers, refrigerators, and air conditioners.  Currently, the Site is open on Mondays, Thursdays, & Fridays from 9:30 a.m. to Noon and 1:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.  You may check out a key at the City Hall when the Site is closed. A $20 deposit is required.
 
All residents of Garden County or other counties using a dumpster picked up by the City of Oshkosh will be charged a fee. If a Garden County resident is using and not paying for this service, the Garden County Sheriff will be notified for theft of service.
 
If everyone will abide by these regulations, the City of Oshkosh can continue to offer the same service without huge increases for trash services.  The City appreciates all that follow these rules.
