How to get another trash can from the city

If you are in Phoenix, request an additional container through myPHX311 using your service address. Use the separate repair or replacement request for a damaged or missing container, and confirm whether the extra container adds an ongoing charge and when delivery will occur. First check which city or private provider serves the address, and confirm the account holder or building manager can authorize the request. If you only have a one-time bulky overflow, removing the items may be more practical than adding a permanent cart.

Choose the right request

An additional cart is different from replacing a damaged or missing cart. Phoenix provides separate request paths for additional containers, repair or replacement, missing containers and size exchanges. Start with the provider serving your address, then have the account holder or authorized building contact submit the request with the service address.

For an extra cart, ask about the recurring charge and delivery window before submitting. For a one-time overflow, consider arranging removal of the accepted items instead of changing your regular cart service.

If you are opening service at a new address, use the new-home trash-service setup checklist before requesting an extra cart.
