Building Permits
Residents are reminded that a permit is required before any
construction work is done on a home. Check with Village Hall for
requirements and fee information (284-9423). Any work performed
prior to acquiring a permit will result in the fee tripling, per
village ordinance.
Refuse Pick Up
Ordinary refuse and trash is picked up once per week on
Thursdays. Your trash should be at the curb by 7:00 a.m. on
collection day, but not earlier than 24 hours before pick up.
However, if there is a holiday during the week the trash will be
picked up on Friday. Trash shall be containerized in plastic bags
or standard 20-35 gallon metal cans or similar approved sturdy
containers. No trash can, bags or bundles shall weigh loaded more
than 55 pounds. Large item pick-up, such as
appliances or furniture, can be arranged by contacting the contracted
hauler before setting the item curbside for pick-up. Contact
info can be be obtained by calling Village Hall.
 Yard
Waste Collection and Recycling
Wisconsin residents are not allowed to put yard waste
in with their ordinary household waste. Residents are encouraged to
compost, or take their bagged grass clippings and leaves to our
Public Works Building. The Village will chip small tree branches
(less than 3 inches in diameter) every Monday April through October. Residents are asked to place branches at
the curb on the weekend before the pick up. The Village of Saukville
requires all residents to recycle and offers curbside pick up of
recyclables every Thursday. These include glass containers,
aluminum and tin cans, newspaper, magazines, cardboard and certain
kinds of plastic. Contact Village Hall for a detailed list of
recyclable materials and how they should be prepared.
