- – All trash in customer-owned cans or containers must be bagged with a weight not exceeding 30 pounds – we also suggest tying bags closed & not over-loading the bags to help keep them from spilling as we take them to our truck – loose/unbagged trash & overweight items are not safe for our crews & will not be picked up
- – Routes can begin as early as 5:00 AM & are typically complete by 7:00 PM – we ask that you have trash available for pickup during this period
- – Volume limits for each pickup:
- 1 Cart service – 1 full blue cart
- 2 Cart service – 2 full blue carts
- 3 Cart service – 3 full blue carts
- Dumpster service – level-full dumpster
- NOTE 1: Trash must be non-hazardous & acceptable at all licensed disposal facilities/landfills – CANNOT BE ACCEPTED: radioactive, bio-hazard, or medical wastes, medical sharps, tires of any size, household chemicals, etc.
- NOTE 2: All trash picked up must be compactible (household trash that can be smashed) – items that cannot be smashed have the potential to damage our equipment & will not be picked up (bricks, rock, masonry, concrete, dirt, metal, lumber, furniture, tree trunks, etc.)
- NOTE 3: Any volume above the limit is considered “overage” & may not fit in the truck for its assigned route. Please notify the office at least 24 hours in advance of your route day if you anticipate overage & the staff can verify with the route crew that space is available & charge your account according to the additional volume required
