Solid Waste Management's Mission Statement:

Wilmington's Solid Waste Management Division is dedicated to providing the public expert services through comprehensive solid waste and recycling programs. 

The City’s Solid Waste Management Division is an enterprise fund whose revenues are based primarily on monthly fees charged to solid waste customers based on the chosen level of refuse service.

We provide weekly, curbside residental household garbage, recycling and yard waste pick up.  Residents can also receive a bulky or large item pick up as part of their regular service when requested.  Additionally, the City provides commercial trash and ABC recycling pick up to the downtown business area, as well as a range of special services and festival support throughout the City.

 

Section 11-2.2 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Wilmington permits some single-family residents to receive a reduction on the rates for water, sewer, and refuse. To receive these reduced rates, the household must have a total gross income of $20,500 or less AND either be 65 or older or be totally and permanently disabled.

Do you have construction materials, furniture, housewares or toys that are still in good condition?  If yes, please consider donating to the Habitat Home Store located at 1515 S. Front St, 910-762-4744.

Bicycles that are still in good condition can be refurbished for charitable resdistribution, by contacting the Two-Wheeler Dealer at 4408 Wrightsville Ave., 910-799-6444
