Items NOT collected:
Items NOT allowed for pick-up include all items banned from the Landfill. This includes all tires, chemicals (*see HHM), yard waste, car parts, concrete, scrap metal, etc. Demolition and remodeling debris is also not allowed on clean-up day, but, you may make special arrangements by calling Town and Country at 712-472-2493.
The City of Primghar and Town and Country Disposal have the right to reject any items placed out for collection.
If items are not picked up you will be notified of the reason they cannot be taken and you will be responsible for removing them from the curb and properly disposing of them within three (3) days. Should an item be picked up and you failed to have the proper tag you will be billed for any and all incurring fees.
Rummaging through or removing items placed out for pickup by any person should be done so in a neat and respectable manner.
