Metro Waste Authority oversees collection of garbage, yard waste, and recycling for the City of Polk City.
Through this program management, Metro Waste Authority is a one-stop shop for all questions related to safe, smart disposal, collection questions, or issues. If you have a question or concern, simply call 515.244.0021. Metro Waste Authority has managed these programs on behalf of cities for a couple of years now and as with all contracts, there is an expiration date and terms must be renewed.
Adjustments to collection of garbage and yard waste are coming this summer.
What does this mean for you?

Please note-there will be 2 collection days the week of the transition. Normal Wednesday collection day, June 29, 2022, and New collection day Friday, July 1, 2022. Residents should use this opportunity for the additional garbage collection that week and plan accordingly.
