The City of Big Timber, in cooperation with Allied Waste Inc., has expanded recycling opportunities for the community. Recycling is part of a larger plan being put forth by the Big Timber City Council to reduce the mass of garbage which is currently being hauled to Logan Landfill.

The cost to the taxpayers of Big Timber to pick up, haul and tip garbage is, on average, $29,000.00 per month. It is hoped the residents of Big Timber will enthusiastically participate in this recycling program thus reducing and changing the way in which we dispose of our garbage.

The Big Timber City Council is considering a new “bag &/or tag system” for garbage disposal - a “pay for the service you use” program, which will reward residents who recycle, by reducing their garbage service costs.
