AUTOMATED WASTE & RECYCLE COLLECTION TIPS The automated roll-out waste & recycle collection program will result in a cleaner, more attractive environment as well as safer working conditions for our collectors. The new garbage & recycle collection system uses one type of container that will be emptied by automated equipment, making the process faster and safer. Wheeled carts make garbage & recycle collection easier for everybody. Carts are stable and designed to not blow over, even in high winds; lids are attached and snug-fitting to keep animals out; and carts also have a smooth interior, making cleaning easier. To better service our customers, we ask you please: Place your container(s) at the curb by 6:00 am on the morning of or the night before your scheduled service. Place the container(s) within 3 feet of the curb with the handle and wheels facing away from the street. Make sure the container(s) is at least 4-5 feet from your recycle or other roll-out cart, trees, mailboxes, cars, yard waste, utility poles, or any other obstructions. Place all recyclable items in the Republic Services cart for collection by our automated truck. Do not leave recyclables outside the roll-out container. Notify us if your cart is damaged or stolen. Don t place construction debris, yard waste, or hot ashes in the recycling cart. Don t overfill the cart; the lid must close. Don t pack recycle contents too tightly. Don t paint or write on the cart. Don t remove the cart from your residence. Don t put recyclable materials in the TRASH cart. Don t put garbage/trash materials in the cart marked RECYCLE. HELPFUL ANSWERS ABOUT YOUR SERVICES Your TRASH cart will be serviced one time per week by the Valdese Public Works Department; your RECYCLE cart will be serviced by Republic Services every other week on Wednesdays (see attached recycling calendar). If you no longer have use for your old 18-gallon recycle bin you can place it in your new 96- gallon recycle cart so that Republic Services can recycle them. Your first collection day will either be on Wednesday, October 5 th, 2016 or Wednesday October 12 th, 2016 depending on which side of town you reside. Service will continue on every other week from then on. Please refer to your collection day schedule. The 18-gallon recycle bin will no longer be serviced effective October 1, 2016. Dead-end and one-way streets Due to the nature of automated collections and/or safety concerns, it may be necessary for all residents located on dead-end or one-way streets to place their recycling carts on one side of the street for collection. This may require some participants to place their recycling cart on the opposite side of the street from their residence. During the initial startup phase, the driver will relocate the cart for servicing and leave notification concerning future placement. We operate all holidays except Christmas Day. Questions?
