GARBAGE

The Milk River Public Works department picks up garbage on Thursdays. Please ensure all garbage is placed within the bins and the large wheels of the bin are placed in the gutter, facing outwards. 

Heavy snowfalls and slippery streets may necessitate that garbage collection be restricted to streets that are safely accessible. When this happens, road conditions will be monitored throughout the day, and if possible, Public Works Department will try to pick up on your street. If your material has not been picked up by 2:30 p.m., please bring it back inside and set it out again next week.
