Special Pickup

Loader Pickups

Special Pickup with loader is a fee based service for the collection of rocks, concrete, bricks, wood, lumber, trees, plaster, dirt, used household furniture and appliances which cannot be moved by hand. The cost is $100 for the first truck load and $50 for each additional load. Material should be placed within 3 feet of the curb or alley. Materials should not be mixed. This may result in a higher charge.

Any material which is not dirt, concrete, tree branches or logs will be assessed an addition $25 per cubic yard to offset the cost of disposal. Call the Street Department at 414-768-8075 to request an estimate for Loader jobs. The option is available to take the material in question to the Self Deposit Station at no charge.

Limitations

There are size, weight and quantity limitations which determine if it is a Loader Pickup and/or if a fee applies. Items should be assembled within 3 feet of the curb or alley.
