Place your garbage and recycling out by 7 am on the day of your scheduled pick-up.
For your ease & convenience, we are happy to provide back door service. With the garbage being hand-loaded, all trash should be bagged before placing in trash can - no loose trash please.
If bears are an issue in your area, bear-proof trash cans are recommended and they are available at local hardware stores.
WHAT SHOULD I DO IF MY PICK-UP IS MISSED DUE TO WEATHER/POOR ROAD CONDITIONS?
Services will resume as soon as secondary and rural road conditions allow. During times of inclement weather, please consider placing garbage at end of steep or icy driveways so that our drivers are able to access.

Some items not allowed in your garbage are: Construction materials, hazardous waste, medical waste, tires, batteries, paint, appliances, and yard waste.
WHAT IF I NEED AN EXTRA PICK-UP OR HAVE BULK ITEMS THAT I NEED TO GET RID OF?
