The City of South Bend Division of Solid Waste offers assistance with trash and yard waste pickup for residents who are physically unable to take their bins to the curb. To request this service, individuals must provide a letter from their physician stating their inability to place the bin curbside, as well as a letter confirming that no one in their household is physically able to do so.
Guidelines for assisted pickup include placing bins at the front of the house, visible from the street, and accessible for the driver by 6 a.m. on the pickup day. All trash must be bagged and placed in city-issued bins with closed lids, while yard waste bins should only contain grass clippings, leaves, weeds, and twigs. The division does not collect bins containing animal waste, dirt and rocks, food waste, household trash, lumber, hazardous waste, plastic bags, or recycling.
