Lost Your Bin? Don't Trash Talk Detroit's Garbage Can Game - How to Order a New One
Let's be honest, forgetting to put the trash can out is a badge of honor most of us wear proudly. But when your trusty receptacle mysteriously vanishes into the night, well, that's a different story. Fear not, fellow Detroiters, because replacing your garbage can is easier than remembering your grocery list (unless your list is permanently tattooed on your forehead, in which case, kudos to your commitment).
Here's the down-low on how to get a new garbage can in Detroit, without turning into a dumpster-diving diva:
Step 1: Accept Your Fate (Just Kidding... Mostly)
We've all been there. Maybe a raccoon mistook your bin for a buffet, or a rogue gust of wind sent it on a one-way trip to Neverland. Whatever the reason, acknowledge the trashy truth: you need a new bin.

Step 2: Dial Up the Disposal Dynasty
QuickTip: Let each idea sink in before moving on.
Detroit has partnered with Advanced Disposal for all your garbage can needs. Call them at the unforgettable number (844) 2-DETROIT (233-8764). Yes, you read that right. They made remembering the phone number as easy as remembering your favorite Motor City musician (just hopefully with a catchier tune).
Step 3: Prepare for a Mini-Interrogation (Not Really, But Be Ready)
The friendly folks at Advanced Disposal might ask you a couple of questions to make sure you're not some rogue bin bandit. Be prepared to share your address and explain why you need a new garbage can.
Pro Tip: If you're feeling fancy, you can also email them at DetroitMIResidential@AdvancedDisposal.com.
QuickTip: Re-reading helps retention.
Step 4: The Wait is (Hopefully) Short
Just like waiting for a good coney island, there might be a short wait for your new garbage can to arrive. But fear not, because soon you'll be back to tossing your trash with pride.
Important Note: There is a $25 fee for a replacement bin. Consider it an investment in a cleaner, more raccoon-proof future.
