NOTICE ** NOTICE ** NOTICE

TO ALL HOMEOWNERS who have more than one garbage/recycle bin:

Public Works received our new garbage truck. We would like to ask you

that it is important, to ensure garbage/recycle pickup, that you place your

bins at least 2 feet apart.

The new grapple is capable of picking up larger bins for locations with

higher volumes of garbage and/or recycle. The curvature of the grapple is

more round on the new garbage truck than the old truck. This is why it is

important that we ask you for your bins to be spaced out properly. Please

see picture below.

Thank you for understanding,

Public Works Department
