Comprehensive Guide & Details
Davie's Zoned Garbage Collection Schedule
In the Town of Davie, curbside garbage collection is expertly managed in partnership with Coastal Waste & Recycling. To maximize operational efficiency, the town is divided into three distinct service zones—West, Central, and East—which dictate your specific twice-a-week collection days. Residents must have their rolling carts stationed at the curb no later than 7:00 a.m. on the morning of pickup, or they may place them out after 7:00 p.m. the previous evening. The container must be placed within two feet of the street, with the lid completely closed and the directional arrows facing the roadway. Keep the cart a minimum of three feet away from mailboxes, parked vehicles, and low-hanging tree branches to accommodate the automated lift arms.
Beige and Green Cart Recycling Initiatives
Davie actively promotes environmental sustainability through its comprehensive curbside recycling program. Homeowners utilize beige or green carts specifically designated for single-stream recyclables. Acceptable items include flattened corrugated cardboard, rinsed glass bottles, metal food cans, and rigid household plastics. It is absolutely crucial to keep all materials loose; plastic grocery bags and shrink wrap severely jam the sorting screens at the regional facility and are strictly prohibited. If your recycling cart becomes damaged or suffers a broken wheel during the dumping process, residents can easily contact Coastal Waste to swap it out for a functional replacement at no additional charge.
Monthly Residential Bulk Routes
For oversized household items that cannot fit into standard carts, Davie provides a dependable monthly bulk pickup for single-family residences. Homeowners can easily discard large items such as old mattresses, broken furniture, and major appliances right at the curb. You can quickly verify your specific collection week by using the interactive 'Find Your Bulk Trash Date' mapping tool on the Town's official website. Multi-family buildings and condominium complexes utilizing centralized dumpsters operate on a completely different schedule, receiving bulk collections strictly on a quarterly basis. Remember that all bulk items must be placed out by 7:00 a.m. on your designated service day.
Vegetative Debris and Weight Limits
Managing Florida's rapid vegetative growth is a persistent task for Davie homeowners. Yard waste is permitted at the curb, provided it meets strict preparation criteria. Tree limbs and thick branches must be cut to lengths of five feet or less, and no single piece can weigh more than 75 pounds. Loose organic materials, such as pine needles and leaves, must be securely sealed inside plastic bags that do not exceed 50 pounds. For massive landscaping projects that generate debris exceeding standard curbside limits, residents can haul their organic waste to one of the Broward County Residential Drop-off Centers at no charge, provided they bring two valid proofs of residency.
Holiday Blackout Dates and Drop-Off Events
The town maintains a highly consistent solid waste schedule, completely suspending operations on only two major holidays throughout the year: Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. If your standard garbage or recycling collection happens to fall on either of these blackout dates, your refuse will simply be picked up on the next regularly scheduled route day for your zone. Additionally, the Town of Davie hosts several free Shred-A-Thon and household hazardous waste drop-off events annually. These specialized events allow residents to safely dispose of sensitive documents, old electronics, and toxic chemicals like motor oil and paint without endangering the community's sanitation fleet.
