Conducted every other week, schedules for Blue Bin Weeks (indicated with a blue dot on a red bin) and Red Bin Weeks are advertised on cable television Chanel 4 and available from the Statesville Sanitation Department. Items not collected by the city may be delivered to any one of the four county collection sites.
