##### Monday Night Trash

- Only trash and large objects (wooden pallets, etc)
- All trash must go in bins, please put tied bags in one of three black trash bins 
    - bags should not be more than 50lbs (best estimate/not too heavy)
    - the bins are located to the left of the door when exiting. Usually they're on the basement side-walk entrance
- Please check trash in both bathrooms and both trash cans in the kitchen 
    - if more than half full please empty bathroom waste bins into kitchen bins
    - please take out bags from kitchen bins if more than half full or just stinky.
- Please check the round 55 gallon trash cans usually found near the pantry shelves and pantry fridges.
- All trash cans should get a grey contractor bag from the white red and black "Grainger" box on the silver wire racks left of the front door.

##### Thursday Night Trash &amp; Recycling

- Same as above, with addition of recycling, locations listed at top of page. 
    - Replacement bags should be either blue or clear and found in the white cabinet by the basement door
- Recycling bags can be put directly on curb, but if blue bin has bags in it, please put bin at the edge of the curb.
- All the cardboard near the front door needs to go to the edge of the curb. Cardboard needs to be: bagged or bundled, with tape or twine - neatly stacked inside of a box is not enough, they have said they will not pick it up.
