The City of Sterling announces the FALL CLEANUP, scheduled to begin the week of October 17, 2016. As a service to residential trash customers, the City will pick up any trash or rubbish, which is legally disposable at the Logan County Landfill. Appliances containing Freon will not be accepted unless they have been certified “Freon Free” by an approved Freon reclamation center such as your local appliance dealer.
The City has divided residential neighborhoods into four areas and City crews will only pick up items on the designated day(s) for each area. All items should be available for pick-up no later than 7 a.m. on the first date of your area pick-up.
PLEASE DO NOT SET OUT ITEMS MORE THAN THREE (3) DAYS PRIOR TO PICK-UP DATES. CITY WILL NOT COME BACK TO PICK UP ITEMS SET OUT AFTER DESIGNATED ROUTE IS COMPLETED.
The schedule is tentatively set at follows:
Monday, October 17 & Tuesday, October 18 – residences north of Broadway and east of Division Avenue

Friday, October 21– residences south of Broadway and east of Division Avenue
Monday, October 24 and Tuesday, October 25 – residences south of Phelps Street and west of Division Avenue
Every attempt will be made to follow this schedule, but the weather and number of residents participating may require a schedule adjustment.
The cleanup program is designed to assist homeowners in discarding oversized items from City of Sterling resident households only. Business debris, large quantities of construction debris or debris items originating from other sources will not be picked up.
To participate in the cleanup, residents must place the material to be disposed of in the alley adjacent to their property. If there is no alley, materials should be placed near the curb. Anything not in designated areas will not be picked up.
IMPORTANT CHANGE: The Logan County Landfill requires debris materials to be separated before being brought to the landfill. The following items must be placed in separate piles prior to the City crew loading the materials: TV’s /computer monitors, Tires, Metal and Wood. Branches must have their own pile.
Any loose material this includes grass and weeds, must be bagged, boxed, or tied into bundles. Material should not be placed in the street or on the sidewalk where it will interfere with pedestrian or vehicle traffic.
Examples of items accepted by City crews include mattresses, lumber, furniture, bed frames, cabinets, washers, dryers, ranges, dishwashers, microwaves and water heaters.
