No Trash or Recycling Pick-up on Labor Day

Pelitteri will be closed on Monday, September 2, 2019 in observance of Labor Day.

Residents will be serviced one day later than their normal service day. Monday routes will be done on Tuesday, Tuesday routes will be done on Wednesday, and so forth for the entire week.

Residents normally service on Friday will be serviced on Saturday, September 7, 2019.

Since collection routes may be serviced differently, your pick-up time may be altered. As always, please make sure to have your carts out by the time designated by your community (click here for more information).

Also, like Pellitteri's new Facebook page to keep up to date on Pellitteri happenings!

Curious about your recycling? Check out the expanded recycling list and recycling video to see what is recyclable and how it gets sorted. Want to be a super recycler? Check out the recycling tip videos!



Keep Leaves and Grass Clippings Close to Home

When our streets and walkways are clear of leaves and grass clippings, local lakes and streams benefit. Leaves and grass contain significant amounts of phosphorus which promotes algae growth in Six Mile Creek and Lake Mendota.

Bicycle safety is also impacted when vegetation is left on the road.

Waunakee's ordinance Section 58-8 prohibits persons from placing leaves or grass clippings onto the pavement or into the gutter of any public streets.

Help keep our waterways clean and our streets and sidewalks safe by placing leaves and grass at the property line or above.
