Brevard County Solid Waste Management contracts with Waste Management and Waste Pro for weekly curbside trash and recycling in unincorporated areas. Bins out by 6 AM pickup day. Hurricane debris follows separate schedules.
Brevard County Solid Waste Management Department oversees collection in unincorporated areas, contracting primarily with Waste Management (north county) and Waste Pro (south/central). Residents receive assigned pickup days based on zone. Carts must be curbside by 6 AM. Trash is weekly; recycling is every-other-week (single-stream blue cart). Yard waste collected weekly. Holiday delays shift pickup one day. Storm debris collection activated after hurricanes (Ian, Nicole) follows separate FEMA-reimbursable schedules. Municipalities like Melbourne, Palm Bay, and Cocoa have their own contracts. Central Disposal Facility in Cocoa and Sarno Road Landfill in Melbourne accept drop-offs.
Missed placement: skip until next cycle. Repeated bin rule violations: $50-$200 code enforcement citation. Unauthorized items (hazmat, construction debris) in bins: warning then fine.
