What if I have more garbage than fits in the cart?

Waste Management has agreed that, for the duration of our current 5-year contract, they will collect an unlimited amount of garbage placed beside these full carts in plastic garbage bags or additional garbage cans. 

Peters Township is not selling additional Township garbage containers at this time.  Residents may purchase a Waste Management trash container directly from Waste Management by calling 1-800-866-4460.  Waste Management encourages residents to purchase additional containers from the directly.  Residents may also use their own trash containers or bag trash; however, if a non-Peters Township or non-Waste Management container is damaged during pickup, they will not be repaired or replaced.
