Superior Three Cart Program Distribution Update
Published on March 25, 2025
Waste hauling service is provided through the Town for Original Town, Sagamore, The Ridge, Coal Creek Crossing, Downtown Superior, Calmante, Lanterns, Autrey Shores and Rogers Farm. The recent changes to the Town's service contract do not impact Rock Creek HOA residents, other HOAs on the Rock Creek waste contract like Saddlebrooke or the Summit, or residents in apartment complexes.
New Cart Delivery: With residents receiving custom cart sizing, it has taken longer than anticipated for Republic Services to ensure people receive the correct set of carts. New carts will continue to be delivered throughout the week through this Friday, March 28. All residents on the Town contract should have their new carts before the weekend. Residents can visit Republic’s website for more information.
Old Cart Pickups: Waste Connections picked up the majority of their carts Monday, March 24 after service. Downtown residents will have carts picked up after their final collection day with Waste Connections on Thursday, March 27. If your neighborhood was already serviced and you were missed or did not get your carts out in time for them to be picked up, please fill out this missed cart pickup form. Town staff will work with the hauler to follow up with how and when a new pickup will be accommodated.
The Town is doing its best to work with the haulers to ensure people don't have a gap in service with no carts or double carts for too long, but asks for everyone's patience as the transition happens.
Neighborhood specific information:
- Original Town: New carts will be delivered curbside. Republic has committed to working with Original Town residents to provide curbside pickup service each week going forward for those who wish to receive this service even though they may have alley access as well. Recognizing many rebuilt homes have alley-load garages where alley pickup service may be more convenient, Republic staff will accommodate residents to provide either curb or alley pickup as requested. Please leave your carts out in your preferred location and Republic will pick up from that location and update their routing for the future.
- Downtown Superior: New carts will be delivered in front of each garage. The collection service day will switch to Mondays from the previous Thursday pickup.
- All other neighborhoods on the Town contract: New carts will be delivered curbside. Please check the list at the top of this message to confirm whether this transition applies to you.
Cart Sizes and Cart Choice: You will receive the carts you selected in February or the default set of carts: medium (65-gallon) garbage cart, large (95-gallon) recycling cart and small (35-gallon) compost cart. No cart changes are available until May 1 to allow each resident to receive carts and service to begin. After service begins, you can switch cart sizes up to three times per year for free to find the right service level for your household.
New Service: Service with Republic Services will start on Monday, March 31. All residents will have a Monday collection day.
