Remember that cardboard boxes should be broken down so they fit in the green recycling cart. If that is not possible, the cardboard should be broken down, tied and placed next to the cart so that the driver of the recycling truck can easily reload the cardboard into the cart for disposal.

Also remember that trash should be bagged and put in the gray cart. Do not use the green recycling cart for trash.

Large amounts of excess trash set at the curb may require a special pickup, for a minimum fee of $55. Call 943-2433 for details.

Residents may be asked to lease an additional cart for a one-time fee of $55 if they regularly put out excess trash or excess recycling at the curb.
