Schedule for Trash & Recycle Collection

TUESDAYS: Trash & Recyclables

Place curbside for pickup AFTER 5:00PM on Monday

 

FRIDAYS: Trash ONLY (NO Recycables)

Place curbside for pickup AFTER 5:00PM on Thursday

*There is a new policy on trash containers effective April 19, 2019 that can be reviewed HERE.  Do not place trash in common areas.  Place trash in provided hard plastic containers, with lids, on the devil strips/side walk near your assigned parking space. Effective April 19, 2019 trash bags alone may not be put out as they are easily torn open and spread trash through out the neighborhood and contribute to pest infestation (e.g. Rats). 

Large Items & Other (Call for Pickup)

Large items must be scheduled in advanced with American Disposal.  Call American Disposal and make pick up arrangements. There may be fees for this service for which you, the home-owner, are responsible for. Examples of large items include but are not limited to furniture, mattresses, bathroom fixtures, and appliances.

 

Other items American Disposal will not pick-up without scheduling include electronics, televisions, computers, stereo equipment, and paint cans/products.
