Bulk Trash
Bulk trash is collected on Thursdays and Fridays. Any mattress, box spring, and /or any upholstered furniture MUST be sealed in a plastic bag or wrapped in plastic. The failure to do so will result in the trash not being collected and may result in a $100 civil fine.
Recycling Guidelines for Collection
Recycling is picked up every Wednesday except for weeks where a holiday falls on that Monday. Do not place plastic bags in with your recycling. It jams the machine. Recycling bagged in plastic bags will not be collected. If you don’t have a recycling can, a cardboard box will do the job.
