The city of Margate is uses Republic Services for garbage, recycle and bulk pickup. Members should continue to use the green bin for trash (collected twice each week) and the blue bin for recycling (collected once per week). For specific items allowed or not allow, you can view the Margate/Republic Services Flyer for specific detail!
Garbage (green bin) is on Wednesday and Saturday. Please do not have bins out during the week where they can be seen. They can be placed on the side of corner villas, in the garage or car port or hidden behind a bush. Do not place in front of garage doors or by front door.
Recycle (blue bin) is on Wednesday. Here is a list of what is recycled by Republic Services. Unfortunately we have seen bins with food and diapers! Please DO NOT contaminate the recycle bin. You will contaminate everything to be thrown into trash!
The bin at the mailboxes is for recycled mail or papers. DO NOT use it for garbage. It’s a recycle bin.
Republic requests bins be placed 3 feet apart from each other so the truck claw can pick up the bins without damaging the bin or accidentally losing some of the garbage.
Bulk pick up is on Saturday. Place bulk pickup outside, solely on Fridays. Do not place bulk out on other days. Please schedule work accordingly or keep in garage until Friday!
Call Republic Services if you need a replacement bin or lid at 954-583-1830.
