Trash Carts/Containers

In order for the Trash Contractor to properly use the automated dumping system, the trash carts MUST BE:
  • Eight (8) feet from any obstacle (Poles, mail boxes, cars, etc.)
  • Within two feet of the curbside
  • Two feet from any other obstacle (Other trash cart, recycling bins, etc.)
  • Placed with the lid side facing the road, as noted on the top of the lid.
Each home has been assigned ONE CART. Each cart has a specific identification number on it.
  • These numbers have been recorded and trash will ONLY be picked-up if the numbers coincide with the appropriate addresses.
  • Homeowners are encouraged to WRITE their address on their recycle bins and trash carts.
  • A homeowner may purchase ONE additional cart. Contact District Manager for price.
