We charge per tip of your waste cart. The cost per tip is based on the cart size:
- 32 gallon: $3.63
- 64 gallon: $6.05
- 96 gallon: $8.47
To ensure your trash is picked up, make sure your account has enough funds to cover the cost of the tip. Remember, you can pay as far in advance as you want. Keep in mind that carts left at the curb may be tipped and charged for service.
You can find your account balance, tip history and recycle cart history in your GR PayIt account. If you don't have a GR PayIt account, call 311 or 616-456-3000. We'll give you your account information.
Mail your check or money order (with your account number written in the memo line) to Grand Rapids City Treasurer at Suite 220, 300 Monroe Ave NW Grand Rapids, MI 49503.
The length of time it takes for us to apply your payment varies depending on the day you pay. Review below to find out when you can expect your payment to post.
