The Sanitation Department provides weekly curbside trash collection and yard waste pick up to city residents. If you reside within the city limits of Powder Springs, this service is required.

New Service
For on-site payments for sanitation or establishing sanitation service, residents should go to the Powder Springs Police Department, 1114 Richard D. Sailors Parkway. Once the deposit has been paid, City Hall will generate a work order for the Sanitation Department to deliver your cart. This process usually takes 1 to 3 working days depending on workload, holidays, etc. Garbage charges will appear on your quarterly bill.

In the event that a 90 gallon container is not sufficient for your volume of trash, you may request a 2nd cart. The applicable fees for this are an additional $60 cart deposit and an additional $5 charge on your quarterly garbage bill.

Fees

  • Cart deposit - $75
  • 2nd cart deposit - $60
  • Quarterly rate for city resident - $72
  • Quarterly rate for county resident - $78
  • Quarterly rate for city resident over 65 - $38.25
  • Additional quarterly rate for optional 2nd cart - $15
  • Cart replacement fee - $75
  • A quarterly streetlight fee of $16.50 is added to all bills

For those who register for autopay, a $5 discount will be provided. Download the ACH Recurring Payment Form here and email the completed form to UBCLERK@CityofPowderSprings.org or mail to City of Powder Springs, P.O. Box 46, Powder Springs, GA 30127. Completed form must be submitted at least 15 days prior to the next billing due date to take effect for that quarter. Otherwise, please submit proper payment to avoid late fees.
