Great News on ... Bins!

We will do our utmost to collect additional recycling; please place this in boxes or loosely bag it so that crews can see what has been presented. Please do not use black bin bags.
As with black bin collections, if your bin is missed please leave it presented for 48 hours and we will attempt to return and empty it. After this time, please take your bin off the street. You can put it back out on your next scheduled blue bin collection. "
