The City of Cape Coral contracts solid waste removal services to help keep our city's streets clean and safe. Residential waste collection begins at 5 a.m. from May 1 through September 30 each year to help combat the summer heat.
Each residence is provided a tan bin for household waste and a green bin for recyclables. The city owns these bins, which must remain with the dwelling. Residents should familiarize themselves with trash collection protocols to optimize available services and comply with city requirements.

Residential Bulk Waste Collection:
Bulk Waste Drop-Off:
Residents can drop off bulk waste at the North Cape Government Complex, 1200 Kismet Parkway, Tuesday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The site can be accessed from Northwest 14th Avenue.
When a resident hires a company to work on fences, provide landscaping services, trim trees, etc., the service provider is responsible for disposing of all debris and rubbish. They may not leave anything behind for City contractors to collect.
Household Chemical Waste:
The City holds semi-annual drop-off events to collect bulk items and household chemical waste at City Hall, 1015 Cultural Park Boulevard. Large, gently used donation items will also be accepted. The next drop-off event will be held November 2, 2024, from 7 to 11 a.m.
