# Trash Removal

Custodial Services provides routine trash removal in general fund spaces according to their Cleaning Guide, which can be found on the web at: [https://cgs.fo.umich.edu/custodial-services/custodial-standards-guidelines/](https://cgs.fo.umich.edu/custodial-services/custodial-standards-guidelines/). Custodians are responsible for removing the trash from interior spaces to a central dumpster or trash compactor.

Waste Management staff removes trash from building dumpsters and trash compactors for recycling or to a landfill.

At customer expense, additional trash pick-ups can be provided when departments are discarding large quantities of trash. Please request this service well in advance.

To request service, call the Facilities Service Center at 734-647-2059 or visit [requests.fo.umich.edu](https://requests.fo.umich.edu).
