Other notes
- Flagship accepts landfill garbage, separate yard/food-scrap composting and additional recycling streams. It is not the county office at 200 Division Street, Petoskey.
- Address wording conflict: county landing page says 7363 Pleasantview Ln, FAQ saysPleasantview Rd; dedicated county program garbage page specifies 7363 S. Pleasantview ROAD. Use program directions and call if map routes differ.
- No yard waste, whole tires, liquids, hazardous material or clinic/business medical waste AS GARBAGE. Tires/chemicals/yard material have separate program rules, not permission to mix into trash.
- Current loose-garbage and noncompactable rates differ sharply. Gatehouse decides after inspecting load, do not estimate sofa as ordinary loose bag garbage.
- County satellite recycling bins accept two day-to-day streams, Paper/Boxes/Bags and Mixed Containers. Flagship adds garbage and special materials; do not leave special waste at remote recycling bins.
- County satellite list says 24/7/365 but also explicitly marks downtown Petoskey site CLOSED while seeking new location. No claim every advertised satellite currently open.
- Current material-specific compost/chemical/electronics fees not verified here. Confirm separate-stream price and schedule before special trip.
