Under the new program each house will be furnished with wheel mounted, automated containers for the disposal of household waste . Such efforts help reduce the volume of material placed in landfills.
Recycling saves energy and natural resources by reusing materials.
In order to participate, each home will be furnished with plastic bins. On collection days, two trucks will visit your curb. The standard refuse truck, for your dispos able material, and a second truck, to pick up your newspapers, cans, bottles, glass jars, and plastic milk containers. The final phase of the program involves the disposal of landscape waste.
