Frequently Asked Questions

What time does my trash/recycling need to be at the curb? 

Trash and recyclables need to be at the curb by midnight the night before your scheduled collection day.

Does trash inside my cart have to be bagged? 

Yes. You are required to bag all trash so that it can be cleanly dumped by our drivers/trucks. Our drivers will not reach down into the cart or can to remove stuck/frozen trash.

Can I dispose of electronics in my trash? 
State regulations require electronics (TV’s, Computers, Printers) be properly recycled. Beaver County residents can click here, and Allegheny county residents can click here for location and contact information for companies that recycle electronics, as well as special collection dates. E-waste can be disposed of at our Valley Waste facility.
Can I dispose of paint in my trash? 

Paint may be placed out with your regular trash if it is solidified. Sawdust, sand or kitty litter may be used to help dry it out. Alternatively, hardware stores that carry paint also sell packets of powder that will harden paint in minutes. Paint cans must be placed OUTSIDE of trash can with LID REMOVED.

Can I dispose of propane tanks?

No - propane tanks cannot be placed in any carts, commercial containers, or roll-off boxes.

Where should I place my trash can and recycling bin? 
  • Place cart on a level area with no more than 5 ft. from the street with wheels away from street and lid opening to the street. Keep 3 ft. away from any object such as a mailbox, vehicle, tree, basketball hoop, etc.
  • Trash Cart: Use trash bags and keep lid closed. Drivers will not reach into carts to remove items frozen to the bottom,
  • Recycle Cart: Place items directly into cart (NO PLASTIC BAGS). Keep lid closed. See the recycle chart for instructions.
  • Keep 2 feet away from any additional cart so the truck’s arm can go around each cart.
  • Please be sure that no overhead wires or tree branches interfere with lifting the carts vertically. Carts placed too close to any object or an overhead obstruction will not be picked up due to the liability of damage to the object. Please DO NOT deface the cart. Additional charges may apply for the replacement of a cart damaged or defaced by a customer.
