Proper preparation of disposed materials and knowledge of required precaution is essential for our safety and the environment.
Trash/recycling must be out by 7am on trash/recycling day at the curb. With bad weather or holiday (we don't observe all holidays) remember when in doubt put your trash out. If we observe a holiday and it landed on or before trash day even bad weather we don't work on (excluding saturday and sunday) trash is delayed one day that week. Make sure trash/recycling is at the curb and in sight of the driver at all times. If we can't see trash/recycling at the curb when we come by on your trash/recycling day it won't be picked up that week and there'll be a fee to come back that week. Please have trash/recycling out by 7Am on service day.
*Paint must be placed with the lid(s) OFF, all contents must hard or mixed with some hardening agent. PAINT CAN'T BE THROWN AWAY IF NOT DRIED OUT!!!! Paint found in trash may left behind at the discretion of our guys out on the route. Wet paint can make a mess and be hazardous, also we don't want to charge anyone to clean up paint. Paint hardener can be purchased at most local hardware stores. The best way to dispose of paint is through a paint recycling participant - check your local household hazardous waste participation usually hosted yearly through your county or city.
