| General Reminders |
| |
- Please do NOT put batteries—or any devices containing batteries—in your trash or recycling containers. They can start fires. Batteries must be taken to a drop-off site. Check your local Clean Sweep location, battery store or visit batterynetwork.org.
- Please make sure the lids on your carts are closed to reduce windblown litter or material falling out when the cart is being emptied.
- Placing your trash in bags before putting it in your cart for normal pickup helps to cut down on wind-blown litter and allows for easier clean-up if carts tip over. For recyclables, use only clear or see-through plastic bags. (Recyclable items placed in black bags will not be recycled. See our website for more details about recycling contamination.)
- Be sure to place carts at least 4 feet away from each other and any other obstructions (mailboxes, trees, cars, etc.). Do not place carts in the street. The best placement for carts is on opposite sides of the driveway or on the grass within two feet of the street.
- Carts will not be collected if they are improperly placed or overflowing (lid is not shut).
