Collection Schedule Questions and Answers
1. What should I do on collection day?
Place your container in the street at curbside, near the corner of your driveway. Face the container's handles toward your home, and at least three feet away from any obstruction (fence, lamp, or mailbox). The container must be at curbside by 7:00 am or earlier on your regularly scheduled collection day.
2. Where can I park my car on collection day?
If your car is parked in the driveway or on the street, it must be no closer than three feet to the automated containers. Collection cannot be made if a vehicle blocks access to the containers.
3. Will the same truck pick up all three containers?
No. A separate truck is used to pick up each container. Please be sure that your container has been emptied before removing it from the curb.
