Curbside Cleanups

CLEAN-UP NOTICE


For your clean-up date see the front of your quarterly statement or check the calendar page on this website .

The following information is to assist you in knowing what can be put out for pick up.


· All articles to be disposed of must be at the curb, no later than 5:00 am on your normal collection day. We have special trucks doing this pick up and it will only be done on the day of your regular collection.

· Place all trash & rubbish in disposable boxes or containers.

· NO CONTAINERS OR GARBAGE CANS WILL BE RETURNED.

· Items can be bundled together with strong cord, but must not be over five (5) feet long.

· DO NOT combine your clean-up trash with that of your neighbor. It will not be picked up if combined together. Limit per household: 3 cubic yards (3 cubic yards equals twenty-one 32 gallon trash bags).

· We CANNOT take the following items: cement, rocks, dirt, ashes, auto parts, oil, batteries, tires, appliances, televisions, computer monitors, furniture, mattresses, construction material, yard waste (except in Homestead), paint or other hazardous materials.

· REMINDER: Be sure to have all your articles out by 5:00am on your normal collection day. We will pass your area only once and we will not be able to return for any rubbish not out by the above-mentioned time.

Thank you for your cooperation


Almonte, Alto, Corte Madera, and Homestead Residents Only

Our contracts with Almonte, Alto, Corte Madera and Homestead call for substituting designated cleanup weeks with Personal Curbside Cleanup Days. Two times per year in Almonte and Alto, and four times per year in Corte Madera and Homestead, residents may call our office to request their own personal curbside cleanup. This allows you to do your "spring cleaning" any time of the year it is convenient for you - rather than waiting for a designated cleanup week. The rules for what and how much is allowed to be left at the curb are the same as above.


You must schedule your personal cleanup days on your regular garbage day and notify our office at least 24 hours in advance.
