How the Three Cart System Works
The Green Trash Cart
This Green cart is collected at the curb every week on your Scheduled collection day. Service
days may be subject to change and customers will be notified in advance. Placement of all carts
at the curb is essential to insure collection by automated trucks. Place your trash cart on either
side of your driveway, at the edge of the curb. Allow a minimum of three feet of clearance on all
sides of the cart from objects such as trees, fences, mailboxes, streetlights and other carts.
Carts must be a minimum of six feet from any vehicles. Position your carts in a manner so that
pedestrians can use the sidewalk.
You can do your part to help save landfill space, preserve natural resources, and conserve energy
by participating. Put your recycling cart in a convenient location and use it every day. Make the
recycling life-style a part of your household. Recycling is easy with the collection system. Just
fill your blue cart with acceptable materials listed on the recycling page. Place the cart at the curb every other
week along with your trash cart for collection.
