MOVING?
Containers are registered with the property address, so please do
not take containers with you when you move. Container change
requests are to be made by registered homeowners only.
Please set out your containers in a
location that provides safe access
for collectors. Debris, weeds &
overhanging trees limit our ability
to provide service. In winter, place
containers in an area free of ice and
snow so that collection is possible.
