The City of Hoover has changed garbage vendors effective October
1st, 2015. You may have already received your new garbage and
recycling container today. As a reminder, we’re not supposed to start using
those until 10/1. Here is a link to the information on the City of Hoover
website: http://www.hooveral.org/index.aspx?nid=308.

ATTENTION: NEW GARBAGE VENDOR INFORMATION
Waste Services of Alabama (Santek) personnel will begin delivering your
new carts September 14th. You will receive a gray cart for household trash and
a blue cart for recyclables. Both carts
will be 96 gallon carts. We have
approximately 25,000 residents in Hoover who will receive new carts by the end
of the month. Please be patient with us
during this transition period.
PLEASE DO NOT USE YOUR NEW CARTS UNTIL OCTOBER
1ST
After October 1st, our outgoing vendor - Republic Services, will collect
one empty trash cart and one empty recycle cart per household. You may leave
your old carts on the curb for pick-up after October 1st. Should you have
questions concerning smaller recycle carts, please call Waste Services of
Alabama (Santek) after October 1st at 205-631-1313 and they will exchange your
large recycle cart for a smaller one upon request. You may also contact the City of Hoover
Public Works Department with questions at 205-444-7543.
Although Santek will not officially begin servicing Hoover until
October 1st, we have updated our website to reflect their contact
information. Please continue to contact
Republic Services (205-929-5646) for garbage issues until October 1st.
