The B’s

∆ Place carts at least two (2) feet apart and 2-foot away from parked cars, recycling bins, fences, mailboxes and other obstructions.∆ Place carts with arrow (on the lid) facing the street and the handle facing your house.∆ Place cart wheels as close to the curb as possible.∆ AVOID having materials too tightly compacted (over-stuffing the cart) - this may result in an incomplete service by our automated trucks.

∆ Lid of cart must be closed (flat) or extra charges will be applied - perhaps a slight push

on the lid will close it flat.∆ Do not place anything on top of cart.∆ Unhook any temporary bungee cords or tie-down rope you may have used to secure the lid.∆ Do not place dirt, sod, brick, concrete or rock in the cart.∆ Keep debris from construction, remodeling or demolition out of the cart.
