Town of Troy’s program requires residents to call to schedule bulky item collections. Any items that do not fit in your garbage or recycling cart must be called into our office at 262-473-4700; or emailed into [email protected]. Our office hours are Monday – Friday from 8am-4:30pm and Saturday from 8am-noon. Bulk items are scheduled regularly throughout the month. You may schedule up to one bulk items collection per month, with a total of twelve per year.
Twice per year, residents may substitute any one of their twelve bulk items collections to have one qualified household electronic item collected.
