Who will monitor to make sure people are using the trash/recycling/yard waste dumpsters properly?

Proper use and monitoring of trash/yard waste dumpsters is the joint responsibility of City residents and Refuse Division employees. It is illegal for businesses and commercial trucks to use the City’s residential trash, recycling or yard waste dumpsters, and it is illegal for anyone who is not paying the City solid waste services fee to use these dumpsters. If you see anyone that you believe is not a legitimate user placing items in the City dumpsters or if you see items in your dumpsters that you think were illegally dumped, please call the Citizen’s Service Bureau at 314-622-4800. If you see a commercial truck that is illegally dumping, get the license plate number, the description of the vehicle, and call 911. The City’s Trash Task Force will investigate and prosecute instances of illegal dumping. If the information you provide results in the conviction of the suspect, you may be eligible for a $100 reward.
