Trash Collection / Recycling

Leaf Collection

For information on our seasonal leaf pick-up program, visit the Leaf Pickup page.

Brush Drop Off

The City of Stow provides a convenient location for STOW residents to drop off their brush yard waste that is the result of yard work done in their own yards. Periodically, this material is ground up by the City and made available to residents as a mulch-type material. The material is also used on City grounds. This program reduces the amount of waste that goes to the landfill. For more information, visit the Brush Drop Off page.

Trash Collection

Kimble Company was selected by the City as the lowest qualified bidder to provide residential curbside trash and recycling collection for the residents of Stow. This arrangement provides uniformity of service and reduces truck traffic on City streets. The current contract began in September 2019.

If you have any questions or problems with your service, please contact Kimble Companies at 800-201-0005.

Solid Waste and Recycling: All solid waste and recycled materials included in the current subscribed service level will continue to be collected.
