Local services and rules

Moving to Canton: who to call and what the city asks.

Downtown Canton on-street parking includes diagonal spaces that are back-in only: a driver backs into the spot and pulls out to leave. The Sanitation Department does not keep regular pickup at vacant homes, and collection resumes once the house is occupied. The City of Canton levies an annual income tax on people who live in the city or earn income there, and the Canton City Income Tax Department is a division of the City Treasury.

Emergency snow routes and Ordinance 357.04

City of Canton Ordinance 357.04 prohibits parking on emergency snow routes. The snow parking ban is instituted when four inches or more of snow is on the streets and the Street/Sewer Department is actively removing it. Vehicles on designated Emergency Snow Routes during the ban are towed at the owner's expense.

Utility Billing, AEP Ohio and Enbridge Gas Ohio

Starting, cancelling or changing utilities goes through the Utility Billing office at 330-649-8100, which schedules a time for the Water Department to come out to the house.

According to the city FAQ, AEP Ohio (Ohio Power) delivers electricity, reads meters and issues monthly bills. Its number for emergency repairs, downed power lines and billing questions is 800-672-2231. The same FAQ lists Enbridge Gas Ohio as the company that delivers natural gas and maintains the pipeline system. Service turn on or turn off is 1-800-362-7557, and emergency repairs or gas leaks are 1-877-542-2630.

Sanitation Department trash and recycling

The City of Canton Sanitation Department collects trash weekly from all City residents and gives each residence a 95 gallon standard cart. Residential waste goes at the curb no earlier than noon the day before pickup and no later than 6:00 A.M. on pickup day. A resident can find the trash day for an address by calling the Sanitation Department at 330-489-3020, as the holiday schedule page notes.

Curbside recycling bins are free, and the City delivers them for free.

Bulk pickup and front-load dumpsters

Two large items per week, such as furniture, may be set at the curb on the regular collection day at no additional charge. Mattresses, box springs and upholstered furniture must be wrapped in plastic and sealed before pickup, or they will not be collected.

Residents can rent a front-load dumpster from the Sanitation Department to clean out a garage, basement or yard; the number is 330-489-3020, and the rental details are on the city recycling and garbage page.

Canton Recycling Center at 742 Schroyer Ave SW

The Canton Recycling Center at 742 Schroyer Ave SW takes tires, certain household hazardous waste and other recyclable items. The center is open Tuesdays and Fridays from 9am to 3pm, and appointments are required. Curbside trash service does not collect paint unless it is hardened.
