Friday Is Deadline For Tulsans To Choose New Trash Carts

Friday is the deadline for Tulsa residents to choose what size their new trash carts will be, as the city moves to an October 1, 2012 start date for the new refuse system.

Tulsans can select a 32-gallon, 64-gallon or 96-gallon trash cart.

"After listening to the public's questions and preferences, we wanted to allow residents to choose their cart size," said Cheryl Cohenour, Tulsa Authority for the Recovery of Energy chairwoman. "We encourage citizens to watch their mail and pay attention to the public education campaign so they can consider their options carefully and make the right decision for their needs."

Residents can visit www.KnowYourTrash.com or call 918-596-9777 to speak with a live operator to select a service plan and cart size.
