7 Easy Tips For Your Winter Garbage Pickup
Just like everyone else, winter weather often makes our average day a lot more difficult. In order to help make things more efficient for both the customer and drivers, here are some tips to ensure you get the best possible service during these times of extreme weather.
- Make sure your garbage isn’t trapped in a snowbank. When shoveling your drive, simply take a few extra minutes to clear out a spot where you can place your cans. If you have a snow removal service, ask them to clear a place to put your cans. Most companies will do this at no extra charge.
- Make sure the garbage can isn’t blocked by any vehicles.
- Routes change all the time so be sure to have your garbage out early that morning or even the night before.
- Make sure your garbage is within two feet of the curb and five feet away from a solid structure like a mailbox.
- Many of your carts are picked up with an automated truck. Carts must be facing the right way in order for them to be dumped properly. Please have the wheels of the cart facing away from the street.
- If you have white garbage bags, be sure to put them in a noticeable position next to the can. Drivers have a hard time seeing them amidst the snow.
- When we have extreme weather it affects both workers and trucks. When those days come, be patient everyone is working hard to give you the best possible service.
Be safe and stay warm!
