Each person will have to provide a current Hewitt water bill and current driver’s license with current address. SHOULD THE CITY NEED TO  ASSIST YOU UNLOADING YOUR CARGO WITH EITHER EMPLOYEE OR EQUIPMENT, THE CITY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES. (for more information please click here)   

 If you need a large item picked up curbside, you must call Republic Services at 1-800-860-0123, ext. 23008.

Please be sure to place your recycling cart at the curb by 7 am on the appropriate Wednesday.  

Proper cart placement is extremely important. On your collection day place your cart within two feet of the edge of the street by 7 am. Make sure the handles are facing your house, so that when the cart is lifted, the lid opens toward the street.
