1. I have some bulky waste to put out, when can you send someone to get it?

We do not collect bulky waste by call in. We collect these items twice a year, once in the fall and once in the spring. You must obtain a permit from the Public Services Administration Division, 107 Town Hall Drive, off Colington Road, prior to bringing the items to the Dry Trash Drop Off Center next to the Recycle Center off Colington Road.

2. How can I safely dispose of unused paint or paint products?

The Town of Kill Devil Hills does not currently accept any unused paint or paint products. If you have unused latex paint, this paint can be solidified by allowing the paint to dry up in its original container. Sand or kitty litter can be added to the paint to assist it in solidifying. The solidified paint and paint container can then be disposed of in your normal refuse container.
The Dare County Recycling Department may be able to take full unused buckets of paint. Contact Carl Walker, the Recycling Coordinator, at 252-475-5880, for additional information. Contact the Albemarle Regional Solid Waste Management Authority, at 252-338-4458, for information about the disposal of all other paints and paint products.

3. My residential roll out cart is missing. What can I do?

We can look up the serial number for you so that you can locate your cart, call the Public Services Department at 480-4080. If it is not found, you will have to purchase a replacement.

4. My residential cart is broken. What can I do?

If the cart is still within the 10-year warranty period, the Town may be able to fix your cart. If the cart is out of warranty but is an Ameri-Kart (square lid), you may be able to purchase some replacement parts from the Town. If it is an older style (oval lid) cart, the Town is no longer able to provide replacement parts for these carts. Depending on the nature of the damage you may need to purchase a new replacement cart.

If your cart is damaged, please contact the Public Services office, at 252-480-4080, and request that a Residential Roll Out Cart Inspection be completed on your cart. Once this inspection is complete, a Town employee will be able to provide you with additional information about the best way to fix or replace your cart.

5. Where do I get a permit for the dump?

107 Town Hall Drive. Head west on Colington Road, turn left on Veterans Drive, take left on Town Hall Drive, turn right into the Public Services parking lot by the pond. Take two forms of identification and the license plate number of vehicle you will be using.
