Recycle
bin street side placement Information
Place your
recycle bin(s), glass container(s) and motor oil container(s) either
on the curb edge closest to the street or in the street back against
the
curb. Please observe the following clearance criteria to assure your
recyclables are serviced and that the possibility of property damage
is minimized.
- 18
feet of overhead clearance for
your bin(s) is essential as the service vehicles
lifts it's glass collection bin overhead to remove the contents.
- 5 feet
of space in between your recycle bin/container and other
garbage/yard debris carts allows
the garbage/yard debris service vehicle enough space to lower
the pickup arm in between each cart. Without this space the arm
is
unable
to
reach
around
the cart and recyclables may get spilled.
- 18 feet
of space between the bin and any tree, automobile or basketball
hoop assures that the mechanical arm does not
come into contact with any object that could sustain serious
damage.
- 5 feet
of space between the bin(s) and any mailbox(es) prevents
the mechanical arm/truck from damaging the mailbox.
