Trash Collection

        Trash will be collected at the back door on Monday and Thursday, with heavy trash being collected on Thursday.
 
        Leaves, limbs, and yard debris should be placed at the street - Monday & Thursday


 
Recycling: 

2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month. (backdoor pickup; leave bin @ curb)
 Our new collector (Vista Fibers) will pick up more recyclables than we had before. You may put the items all together in a bin which must be visible from the street.
 Items that may be recycled:
 
    --Paper Items-- writing paper, magazines, newspaper, circulars, etc.
 
    --Cardboard Items--Boxes broken down/bundled, gift boxes, paper plates, cardboard cylinders in paper towels, cereal boxes, tissue boxes, etc.)
 
    --All Plastic Items (except bags)-- #1-7 plastics (e.g. plastic water containers, soft drink containers, dishwashing soap containers, deli containers, etc.)
 
    --Bi-Metal Cans (tin cans)-- canned fruit & vegetable cans, tuna cans, etc.
 
    --Aluminum Cans--soda cans, beer cans, etc. (no aluminum paper or pie tins).

       Please Note:  these cans must be RINSED to be recycled.  (That will also reduce the local population of mice, rats, snakes and bugs!)

    --No Bottles or Glass
 
NOTE: There will be a different truck picking up recylcling and it will not even look like a garbage truck. It will be a truck pulling a trailer which resembles lawn service trailers.
 
Our recycling is taken to VISTA FIBERS which is a totally separate location from our refuse.

For any problems or questions, call the City Office (713 973 1779).
