Are you concerned about trash falling outside the truck when it’s collected? You can make the difference by putting your trash in a trash bag and securely closing it. Securely closed trash bags in carts with closed lids help assure a safe, complete transfer into the truck.

Devices containing Lithium-ion batteries should not go in household garbage or recycling bins as they can cause fires during transport or at landfills and recyclers. Check EPA’s page here bit.ly/44OB9ar for how to find where to take this e-waste. Image courtesy of USPS.

Recycling Tip: When in doubt, throw it out 🗑️ Did you know mixing recyclables and non-recyclables can contaminate the entire recycling stream? If you aren't sure if something can be recycled, put it in the trash!

Tis the season so bust out the grill BUT, whenever you 🔥 it up be sure to dispose of ash and propane tanks – as well as all these other top causes of trash load fires – safely! Their improper disposal can lead to fires in your garbage and in our trucks!
