Garbage Collection

Click here to view the 2012 Holiday and Brown Trash Collection Calendar The Town of Kiawah Island provides a comprehensive solid waste program for island property owners who own single family homes. Collection for villas and condo is handled directly by the homeowners associations.

Recycling is conducted on the same day as your solid waste pick-up.  All recycling bins must be placed curbside the morning of your regular solid waste pickup.  Yard debris service takes place on Thursdays. Click to see which day your street is serviced: Street Collection Days

Brown trash pick-up is completed quarterly, occuring four times per year and household hazardous waste dropoff collections are completed twice per year and included in the cost of curbside, backdoor and Saturday service. Single family regime homes do not receive recycling or yard debris service.  See Holiday and Brown Trash Collection Calendar for specific dates.

All services include one garbage container and recycling bin. Additional containers can be obtained from Suburban Disposal for a charge of $75 and one additional recycling bin can be obtained free of charge from the Town (depending on availability). Owners can also purchase recycling bin wheel kits from the Town at $15 per set - installed or in package.  For any questions or assistance please contact Town Hall at 768-9166.

Bills are mailed by August for the service year of July 1 to June 30. If you wish to change the type of service you receive, you may call Town Hall during the month of April to request a change which will be effective July 1.  Exceptions to this rule can be made on a case by case basis.
