A listing of materials that may be placed at the curb for collection, as well as those that are excluded from collection, are listed below. Materials must originate from the residence, and not from elsewhere or from residents contractors. Materials for collection must be placed within curb-lawn areas of rights-of-way - that is, between curbs and sidewalks; or just behind curbs where there are no sidewalks; or at street shoulders where there are no curbs.
Refuse & Recycling

Curbside collection of recyclables is available to all Petoskey residents at no direct cost.
