Service areas
Louisville and Jefferson County share one Metro government, but dozens of small cities inside the county still set their own rules for trash and for what can sit in the street. Before a dumpster arrives, it helps to know whose rules apply at your address.
Phone hours: Monday–Saturday 8am–8pm, Sunday 8am–1pm ET
Inside Louisville
The number works for homes all over the city, from the Highlands, Germantown, Crescent Hill and Old Louisville to Portland, Okolona, Fern Creek, Valley Station and Pleasure Ridge Park.
Inside the Urban Services District, roughly the old city limits, Metro collects trash and runs Large Item Pickup. Elsewhere in the county your trash hauler or small city decides. Either way, a container in a Metro street needs the Pod or Dumpster Permit.
