What time does trash collection start?
Trash collection starts at 7 a.m. Make sure to have your bins on the curb by then.
Place your carts on your driveway apron or terrace so that they are three (3) feet away from obstacles such as other carts, parked cars, mailboxes, utility poles, trees and other obstructions. If the terrace is too narrow to place the cart without obstructing the sidewalk, place your cart on the house edge of the sidewalk or driveway apron.
