Collection Services Guidelines

Garbage

MONDAYS & THURSDAYS

Household Garbage and Heavy Garbage Collection (limited to no more than 2 large items).

Trees, shrubs, brush trimmings, and fencing must be tied and bundled in lengths no greater than 4 feet with no branch diameter exceeding 3 inches. The bundling is required to allow quick pickup and size limitations are required to avoid damaging the equipment in the compacting process.
 

Items such as appliances, furniture, mattresses, and carpet (up to 1 room, rolled up 4 feet wide and less than 40 pounds, bundled and tied) will be picked up on both of your collection days. By Federal Law, refrigerators, freezers, and any other items containing Freon must be drained of Freon and have an accompanying bill to validate that such service was performed.

Non-collectibles

  • Dirt

  • Rocks

  • Bricks

  • Concrete

  • Tires

  • Batteries

  • Motor oil

  • Cooking oil

  • Waste generated by a private contractor

  • Any materials/items deemed as hazardous

Please do not dispose of gasoline, motor oil, paints, cooking oil, or any other liquid items in a container that are not visible to Best Trash personnel. If such items result in spillage that causes a stain, Best Trash is not responsible for the cleanup. Best Trash will leave a tag explaining the reason for any non-collected item(s).

Recycling

MONDAYS

Best Trash takes great pride in our recycling program. Ensuring the best recycling program for our customers takes time and effort on both sides. Please remove caps, liquids, and food products from inside the containers. Please only use the provided recycle cart for recyclable materials; it is NOT an extra trash container.

Recycable

  • Paper

  • Cardboard

  • Plastics (1-7)

  • Aluminum and tin cans

  • Glass (all colors)

If items exceed container capacity, please place them adjacent to the cart well marked as recyclable materials. Please break down all cardboard boxes flat and place them next to the recycle cart for collection. If you find items left in your cart, it means they are not recyclable. Please dispose of these items in your trash container for the next scheduled pick up.

Additional Services

An enhanced feature of Best Trash is special pick-up for items excluded by the contract. If notified in advance, Best Trash will meet with you prior to your collection day to determine a price to haul away non-contract items. If you do not notify Best Trash of such a special pick-up before your scheduled collection day, we will leave a notice for you to contact Best Trash during normal office hours to arrange a price and time for the special collection

Residents are restricted to one cart for refuse and are encouraged to confine refuse to the cart, however, additional refuse may be place in containers (between 30-50 gallons) or bags (not weighing over 40 pounds) and placed next to the Best Trash provided cart.
