Garbage & Recycling

The Village of LeRoy contracts with Waste Management for solid waste collection and recycling. (However, homeowners have the option to contract directly with Waste Management or another company, if they choose.)

  • Regular pick up occurs weekly on Wednesday. Garbage and recycling are picked up by separate trucks and there may be a delay in between.
  • Place garbage and recycling out by the curb, in front of your house, Tuesday evening or early Wednesday morning.
  • When a holiday occurs during the week, pickup may be delayed one day. On their website, Waste Mng. lists these holidays: New Years' Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas. Garbage in the Village will be delayed a day for these holidays. If the holiday falls on a weekend, they don't delay a day. You may also check the WM Holiday Schedule:  https://www.wm.com/us/en/holiday-schedule
