Huntwick.org - Trash Collection

Huntwick�s current contract for trash collection is with Waste Management. For the benefit of new residents, or for those residents who might need a reminder of the contract terms, the following is a list of pertinent instructions applicable to our current contract.

·	Garbage will be collected at the backdoor or inside the gate by the garage on Wednesdays and

Saturdays. (Trash will NOT be picked up from inside the garage nor will they collect waste behind gates where pets are confined.) Garbage shall be placed in plastic bags, garbage cans, or cardboard boxes not exceeding fifty (50) pounds in weight. Collectors will collect all household garbage and up to five (5) bags of yard waste (grass clippings, leaves, or pine needles) from each home. Any bags of yard waste in excess of the five bags that will be picked up at the back door must be placed at the curbside if the resident wants the excess bags collected. Otherwise, the excess bags of yard waste will be picked up on the next collection day. For those residents who have their lawns maintained by yard service companies, please instruct them to place all bags of yard waste at your back door, not at the curbside.

·	Branches and tree trimmings shall be bundled and tied in approximately four (4) foot lengths and not

weigh more than 50 pounds, and shall be placed at curbside by 7:00 A.M., the morning of pickup.

·	Bulky or heavy trash such as stoves, refrigerators, water heaters, washing machines, dryers, furniture

and other �hard to handle� waste shall be placed at curbside by 7:00 AM the morning of pickup. (NOTE: Refrigerators must have a tag verifying that the freon has been removed).

·	Workers will NOT pick up hazardous waste such as motor oil, batteries, gasoline, garden chemicals, or

liquid paint. Other prohibited items are tires and asphalt shingles. Collectors shall NOT be required to pick up more than two (2) cubic yards of roofing lumber, wood fencing or other trash from major remodeling on each collection day.

·	Service does NOT collect trash on New Years Day or Christmas Day. Should these holidays occur on

Wednesday or Saturday, pick-up will be on the next scheduled day.

Huntwick Civic Association contracts for backdoor trash collection (except for bulky items and tied branches placed at curbside as described above) in order to maintain the appealing appearance of our subdivision. We pay extra for these trash services so please keep your garbage and grass clippings at the backdoor locations. If your trash is inside the gate, please keep dogs inside during pick-up days.
