Bulky pickup and yard waste

If you have city trash service, you don't have to haul big items yourself. A special pickup costs $63 for 1 to 5 items, $126 for 6 to 10 and $189 for more than 10, and the city picks up a refrigerator, freezer or air conditioner for $92. Extra items set out beside the cart are $5.80 each.

Curbside yard waste runs from the first full week of April through the last full week of November. Call the Solid Waste Division at (406) 657-8260 to schedule a pickup. Living in Laurel? Its own container site is closer for household trash.
