Curbside Garbage Collection Guidelines Graphic

Curbside Trash Collection Guidelines 

Kenner's curbside garbage collection guidelines cover the disposal of bulky waste, yard debris, and light construction materials. Place bulky items, like furniture and appliances, curbside on the second pickup day. Yard debris and light construction waste must be bagged or stacked, limited to 10 cubic yards.

Household Hazardous Waste

Hazardous waste, including paint and motor oils, should not be placed curbside. For hazardous waste disposal details, see pages 5-6 of the Jefferson Parish Trash and Recycling Guide.

Note: Kenner does not accept glass or household hazardous waste; Jefferson Parish accepts both at its drop-off site, and Ramelli collects glass through Jefferson Parish curbside recycling.

Place bulk items at curb on your second pickup day, stacked neatly and 3 ft from carts, cars, mailbo

Bulk Waste Placement

Place bulk waste curbside on your second scheduled garbage collection day. Set items out by your regular start time, stacked neatly, with at least 3 feet of clearance from carts, vehicles, mailboxes, and utility poles. Do not block sidewalks, driveways, or storm drains, and bundle or contain smaller debris when possible. Bulk set-outs are for residential use only; hazardous waste and tires are not accepted.
