Changes to the Garbage Ordinance

MEMO to all Irondale Residents

We have exciting news about a new and improved Garbage Service! Please see below for details of the changes.

Changes to Garbage Service

  • If you are currently signed up for Garbage Service and you are current on payment you will receive one 96 gallon container for use at your Irondale residence at no charge to you
  • Containers will be delivered beginning March 9th and delivery should be complete by March 21st
  • Each can has a serial number and it will be assigned to your home address
  • All containers are property of the City of Irondale, but you are responsible for the container and should it be damaged, lost or stolen you will be responsible for replacement through the Irondale Sanitation Department
  • If your garbage bill is not paid or your container is consistently left on the street outside of allowed times it will be picked up by the city and you will have to call Irondale sanitation at 205-951-1410 to rectify the issue and restore service
  • If you have not received a container by March 22nd please call Irondale Sanitation at 205-951-1410
  • Once the containers have been delivered you must use your city issued container, no other container will be serviced
