Village Voice

Village Voice: The 2018 Republic Services refuse and recycling guide is now available in the Ada Water Office.

Many residents find it helpful to keep a copy of the calendar handy to know which day their refuse and recycling pick up will happen.

The current contract the Village holds with Republic Services is in place through
November, and there are no changes planned for pick up this year.

Refuse will still continue to be picked up on Tuesdays, with the possible exception of weeks in which a major holiday falls on a Monday or Tuesday.
