The City of Pelham began using Advanced Disposal as their garbage and recycling provider on October 1, 2010. There is some confusion among residents about pickup schedules and what exactly can be put in the containers. Hopefully this will help answer any questions you may have.....
We now have a much larger recycling container which will be emptied every other week, on the same day as garbage pickup. If you are unsure you can call Advanced Disposal at 620-6148 to find out the schedule for your neighborhood. (4 comments)
