James Burgess for Ashburn City Council

Sec. 70-36Pre-collection practices

Unchanged since the 2007 code
Plain English: what this chapter covers

This chapter covers garbage: how trash must be bagged and stored, the pickup schedule, what the city will and won't haul, private haulers, and the garbage fee on your utility bill. An editor's note says the city contracts with the Solid Waste Management Authority of Crisp County (agreement dated 1996).

Garbage and rubbish shall be drained of excess liquid before being placed for collection.

This is a plain-English guide, not legal advice. The official code is on Municode and at City Hall. Our copy is from April 30, 2026.
