Solid Waste Services

  • Ann Arbor Township has a contract with Republic as their preferred waste hauler until June of 2006.  After this time a new waste hauler may be contracted. 
    • Please call Republic at 1-877-264-5544 for schedule information or call the township office at 734-663-3418 to verify the waste hauler.

Recycling Services

  • Recycling is picked up curbside, every other week, on the same day as trash pickup.  To get a complete schedule of recycling pickups, view the website, or call 734-663-3418.

Yard Waste

  • Yard waste (grass clippings, leaves and small twigs) is collected curbside, every other week, from the first of April through November.  The schedule is opposite that of recycling pickups, therefore one week will be yard waste pickup and the next will be recycling pickup. 
  • Please put your yard waste in paper bags or in containers marked COMPOST.  The containers may not weigh over 40 lbs. 
  • Burn permits can be obtained at Fire Station #1 at 3792 Pontiac Trail or Fire Station #2 at 4319 Gross Rd.  You can also call 734-741-5900 with questions.
