The local disposal guide

Will the city
take it?

Kokomo Public Maintenance & Refuse runs weekly curbside trash, a mandatory curbside recycling program every other week on the same day, and limb and leaf collection, and the city says its normal trash routes run on all major holidays including Thanksgiving and Christmas. Large items are collected once a week on the regular collection day and the named large item is one piece of furniture per week, placed at the pickup location by 7 a.m., while televisions cannot be collected at the curb because the city cites Indiana law. Residents who receive trash service are provided two totes and can exchange one kind for the other through the street department form, and the city publishes no refuse rate on the pages that could be read. Electronic waste such as computers, electronics and batteries cannot go in the city tote and moves to the Howard County Recycling District at 4102 Cartwright Drive, and no readable city page publishes a household hazardous waste drop-off, so paint, chemicals and motor oil belong on a call to the city or the county district.
