The 95-gallon cart is for your household garbage. This garbage will be emptied once weekly.
Household garbage includes any waste generated on a daily basis. This excludes vehicle parts, hazardous waste, liquid paint, motor oil, or other unacceptable materials.
Following are important items concerning the pickup of your household garbage. Please read carefully:
- ALL WASTE SHOULD BE PLACED IN THE CART. If you have a bag or two more try to fit it in your can even if the can lid is open slightly.
- For sanitary reasons, use a plastic bag for all trash. If you have Styrofoam packing material, known as “peanuts,” or any light items (for example, plastic grocery bags) which could easily blow away, Please secure these types of items in a bag before placing in the cart so the material will not blow out and litter the streets and neighborhoods. Also, packing peanuts may be recycled by taking them to any business which sells package materials (for example, Master Mailers or Mailboxes etc.)
- Please do not throw away any cans with liquid paint still in them. If you have paint to be disposed of, Please follow these directions:
- To solidify solvents and other household waste, mix the liquid with enough absorbent material to absorb all free liquid and allow the mixture to harden.
- Sand, sawdust, or cat litter can be used.
- Place the solidified material in a plastic bag (double bagging is best) and put it with your regular garbage.
- Or dispose of at your local paint store.
- No motor oil or car batteries are to be placed in the cart. Please call your local service station or auto parts store for proper disposal.
- Please do not put hot ashes or coals in the container as it could cause the container or garbage truck to catch on fire.
- Tips for getting all your trash into the can:
- Break down or cut boxes to fit in can.
- Crush plastic jugs, bottles and aluminum cans.
