To ensure your curbside materials are collected safely and successfully throughout the winter season, follow these tips:
- Place carts or containers on a solid surface for pickup, such as the end of your driveway or the edge of the right-of-way. Do not place carts on a snowbank or in the street.
- Have carts at the curb by 7 a.m. on your regular collection day for pickup.
- Do not overfill carts. City ordinance states the lids must be closed.
- Keep at least a 3-feet clear zone around each cart.
- Keep recycling materials loose—no plastic bags! Also, no glass or Styrofoam.
