REFUSE SERVICE

• Curbside collection days are Tuesday and Friday of each week. Please place trash cans, weighing no more than 40 lbs. each, at the curb no later than 7:00 a.m. This helps maintain the free flow of stormwater and prevents hazardous materials from entering our lakes.
• Heavy and bulk items will be picked up on Fridays. Some bulk items may require calling Best Trash to schedule a special pick-up.
• Yard waste must be placed in sturdy plastic bags weighing no more than 40 pounds. All branches and tree trimmings should be no more than 3 inches in diameter and no longer than four (4) feet in length. Bundles must be securely tied and weigh less than 40 pounds.

• Lawn Waste: Temporarily suspended during the emergency phase.

🌿 After the Emergency Phase

• Grass Clippings: Use clear or brown paper bags (recommended, not required).
• Household Trash: Use white bags (recommended, not required).
• Important: Keep all bags separate from storm debris. (recommended to be in black bags)

🌳 What Counts as Storm Debris?

Storm debris includes materials from hurricanes, floods, or windstorms, such as:

• Fallen trees, branches, and leaves
• Damaged fences, roofing, or water-damaged household items
