We would like to remind all residents of the following regarding garbage collection:
Garbage is to be contained in the provided OSS Grey Garbage Cart.
Only bagged household garbage in a container will be picked up. All other items (metal, yard waste, etc.) will be picked up during spring clean-up week.
Residents will be responsible to take their own non-household garbage to the nuisance grounds during nuisance grounds operating hours.
All garbage must be placed at the curb prior to 6:00 a.m. on the day of pickup for your location.
All garbage not in the appropriate spot at 6:00 a.m. may not be picked up until the following scheduled garbage collection day.
