Monday Night Trash

  • Only trash and large objects get collected
  • Large objects are rare, but sometimes a pallet will be left near the front door
  • 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 (NOTE: the trash bins to the right of the door, in the little fence corral, are for the neighbors not us.)
  • 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 lift. 
  • 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. 
  • If bins are chained outside the code should be "beans"

Thursday Night Trash/Recycling

  • Same as above, but recycling also goes out tonight (please take out all trash and recycling)
  • Please also empty the metal/glass/plastic bin and the cardboard bin in the kitchen/library area
    • replacement bags should be either blue or clear and found in the while cabinet by the basement door
  • Recycling bags do not need to go in a bin, but there may be bags in the blue bin, so please put bin at the edge of the curb if so.
  • All the cardboard near the front door needs to go to the edge of the curb, please

Thanks!
