CommercialServices

Commercial dumpsters are provided to all businesses inside the city limits.  Fees for commercial dumpsters and waste removal are based on the size of the business and the frequency of service.

​

​The City of Bolivar Streets & Sanitation Department prides itself on helping our local business owners to succeed.  Whether to help you review your parking & street connection or to advise you on your commercial waste removal needs, we are here to assist you when you need us.

Brush Removal

The streets and sanitation department provides many services to our residents including brush and limb removal.  The brush removal truck runs an east-to-west route through the city with no set daily schedule.  We ask that you place your brush and limbs neatly beside the roadway for pickup.
