Details on New City Trash Provider

At their Sept. 2, 2025, meeting the Anniston City Council unanimously awarded the City’s new garbage contract to 121 Disposal Company. 
 
This transition expands service at no additional cost to residents, introducing weekly curbside bulk item pickup to replace the previous system of quarterly roll-off dumpsters in each ward. Under the new arrangement, residents will pay their trash bills directly to 121 Disposal Company rather than through the City. See below for important details on this new provider.
