Things We Would Like You To Know

No hot ashes in the trash cans
The waste collections department works all holidays except Christmas
We will pick-up cardboard at commercial stops but not at your residence
Nothing should be left outside the can / if you need more service we can provide it at an additional cost
We do special pick-ups - please call to schedule a time
Please make sure that your cardboard is clean / no Styrofoam, plastic or trash inside the box
We only pickup corrugated cardboard / no cereal boxes, eggs cartons, etc.
If you are throwing your boxes in the trash break them down or cut them up - it will greatly increase the room in your can
Grass bags may be hauled to the landfill free of charge / please do not set them next to your trash can - they will not be picked up
Branches can be hauled free of charge to the landfill / please do not throw them out on the curb or in your alley - they will not be picked up

So What's With The Price Of Aluminum?
The market ($) for recyclable materials is currently at the lowest in recycling history. The Recycling Center takes this bottomed out market as a positive - the market can only go up! Please be patient with us as we plan for the future, expand recycling activities and continue to grow.

Household Hazardous Waste Day has past, thanks to all those who participated.
