The City of Louisville is responsible for removing all household waste set out for collection from residential buildings having eight or fewer units located within the city limits.
Garbage is collected and delivered to the local landfill.
Grass, leaves, and other yard waste are collected separately from garbage and delivered to a local compost facility. Recyclable materials are collected curb side and at drop-off sites, processed, and marketed to businesses that use recycled materials to produce new products. Collection Schedule Residential garbage is collected once a week on a Monday-Friday schedule. There is no limit to the number of cans that residents may set out for collection. If there are physical or geographical limitations, which make using a can impossible, a request for an exemption may be made.
