Please continue to place your recycling loose in your container. Please break down all boxes and reduce in size as much as possible.  If you exceed the capacity of the container, please bag and place with trash.  However, if anyone in your household is exhibiting symptoms of any transmissible illness, please place recyclables in plastic bags and dispose of with your regular garbage.

Best Trash takes great pride in our recycle program. Ensuring the best recycle program for our customers takes time and effort on both sides. Please remove caps, liquids and food products from inside the containers. If items exceed the bins capacity, please place them adjacent to the bin well marked as recyclable materials. Cardboard is recyclable, please break down all boxes flat, and place them next to the recycle bin for collection.

Best Trash will provide each current residence with ONE recycling bin. Best Trash will replace any bins that are defective or otherwise become unusable due to normal wear and tear. Lost or stolen bins can be replaced for $15.00 each by calling Best Trash.
