As a reminder:

- Place trash on one side of your driveway and recyclables and composts on the other.

- Be sure the arrows on the lid are facing the roadway.

- If there is a lot of snow, put your cart in front of the snow pile, if possible, or on top of the snow.  Don't put it behind the snow pile.

- If you have things which won't fit inside the bins, they must be placed in 35 gallon or smaller bags (or 50 gallon cans) that our trash workers will dump into our new bins once the first load has been lifted by the machine.  Do not set excess trash on TOP of the new bins!

- Note that the recycle bin is picked up every OTHER week, per the attached calendar.  Recyclables include rinsed out food cans, clean aluminum foil, clear glass containers (throw away lids, neck rings, Styrofoam), recyclable paper such as newspaper, magazines, phone books, cardboard boxes, and plastic containers marked on the bottom with the recycle symbol numbered 1-7.  NOT RECYCLABLE are paint cans, siding, tubing framing, light bulbs, ceramics, porcelain, window glass, tissue paper, decorative wrapping paper, plastic containers from motor oil, cooking oil, pesticide containers or Styrofoam.

- Note the ammunition, antifreeze, auto parts, auto batteries, construction materials, drywall, fencing, freon, medical waste, motor oil, hazardous waste, oil-based paint and stains, medals and radioactive materials should NOT be put in our new bins and should be disposed of through other means.
