Collection
Places: |
|
Our trash collectors
will do pick ups
from your back or
side yard; it is
not necessary to
bring your containers
to the curb. Just
be sure your containers
are accessible and
visible, or tell
the collectors where
to find them. |
|
Containers: |
|
Please use rigid
containers of metal
or plastic with
tight-fitting lids.
You may use heavy
disposable plastic
liners, but liners
must be kept in
approved containers
when storing trash
between collections.
In other words,
don’t leave
your items out in
plastic bags alone
-- crows, squirrels
and other critters
love to get into
their contents and
would have easy
access. Uncontained
piles of trash,
garbage, and overflowing
containers cannot
be collected. |
