The City provides a curbside trash pick up on a weekly basis for residents purchasing the blue City of Watertown Stickers, or who have signed up for City-provided Trash Carts. Call the DPW office (315) 785-7770 to set up your Tote Service.

As an alternative to the totes, City residents may purchase and use the blue City of Watertown stickers, which may be purchased at City Hall as well as a variety of other locations.

Curbside recyclables picked up biweekly as a free service only for City Residents who use the blue refuse stickers for garbage or use a City provided tote.

If you employ a private hauler, then that hauler must pick up your recyclables.

If you are unable to take your trash/recyclables to the curb due to physical limitations, please download the Curbside Pickup Medical Form and have your physician fill it out and mail it to us at the address on the form, or feel free to call us at (315) 785-7842.
