Help keep clean and collection day running smoothly! 🚛♻️

Please review these quick reminders for your refuse and recycling carts:

✅ Give your refuse cart room. Leave 5 feet of clearance around each cart, away from vehicles, mailboxes, and other obstacles.

✅ Keep the lid closed. All trash should fit inside your refuse cart. Blocked or overloaded carts may not be emptied.

✅ Recycle right! Accepted materials include paper, cardboard, food cartons, #1 plastic drink bottles, #2 plastic jugs and bottles, and aluminum and steel cans. Empty containers before placing them in your recycling cart.

🚫 Keep unaccepted items out of recycling. Plastic bags, glass, foam containers, batteries, electronics, and food waste are among the items that do not belong. See the recycling graphic for additional exclusions.

Save these guides for easy reference, and thank you for helping our Sanitation crews serve our community safely and efficiently!
