Full Breakdown

Beyond the routine quarterly bulk pickup, Midwest City residents with an active full-service utility account can request a special pickup for excessive brush and bulky household items. The first four special pickups each calendar year are billed at the Category I rate of $55 per half hour (minimum $55); any additional pickup that year jumps to the Category II rate of $80 per half hour (minimum $80). Brush must be sized for one person to handle and set at the curb; household appliances aren't eligible. Pickups run Wednesdays and must be requested by 5 p.m. Tuesday.

Violations & Fines

No criminal penalty attaches directly; oversized brush a single person can't lift is left uncollected, and each pickup beyond the four annual Category I visits bills at the higher $80-per-half-hour Category II rate instead of $55.
