Trash, Recycling, Yard Waste, and Large Item Pick Up
Routine trash pickup for Oxford Hills is Friday. GFL Environmental requests that we place trash, recycling, and yard waste at the curb by 6:30 am on collection day or the night before.
According to Johnson County Solid Waste Code – Household trash that does not fit into the bins must be in trash bags and have an overage sticker attached in an area visible to the waste removal truck driver. Recycling and Yard Waste are not subject to this restriction.
These overage stickers are available at the Hen House Guest Services Counter – 11721 Roe Ave, Leawood, KS 66211. Each sticker costs $1.25.
Stickers may also be ordered from GFL Environmental by calling 816-380-5595.
