There will be no collection of curbside refuse and recycling on Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Years Days. All collection will be delayed one day for the rest of those weeks.
How to Ensure that All Your Refuse and Recycling is Collected:
- Refuse is only collected using your Burgmeier’s cart. Bag all regular household trash to avoid spillage during collection. You may place other items directly in the cart.
- Leave 3 feet on all sides of the cart. Place your cart away from mailboxes, trees, garage doors, cars, your recycling bin, and any extra bags.
- Do not place your cart beneath a tree or tree branches to avoid damage to your and the township’s trees.
- Do not park your car directly in front of your or a neighbor’s cart. Do not place your cart behind a parked car.
- Extra bags beside the cart will be collected for $4 per bag. If you have small items you need to dispose of, bag those or place them directly in your cart.
- Items that do not fit in your cart or in a bag must be scheduled for a bulk collection.
- Wood and lumber in your cart must be in lengths of no more than 2 feet (otherwise it binds up the compactor).
- Place your paper and paperboard for recycling in bags or in a paperboard box (like a cereal box) and place that in your red recycling bin so that it does not litter your neighborhood.
- Flatten all corrugated cardboard and place it under your red recycling bin. Do not wedge it between your refuse cart and your bin.
- Go to crcog.net/refuse for contact details, guidance on scheduling bulk waste collection, and items excluded from weekly refuse collection.
