RESIDENTIAL CURBSIDE TRASH & RECYCLING PICKUP

• Please make sure the containers are curbside and out the night before your pick up day. (this will reduce the chance of a missed pick up)
• Please make sure there is nothing blocking the containers (ex: car) 
• Please make sure there is plenty of space between each container and the mailbox. (this will help to prevent damage to your property and the containers. The automated arm is like a claw, it opens to grab the container, then closes on the container to lift it up. We need space to be able to grab the container and when the driver brings the container back down, we don’t want to damage the mailbox if its too close.)  
• The containers need to be facing the street with opening of the lid facing street or hinge side away from street. (once the driver has picked up the container and starts to lift it to the truck, the lid then opens to release the items inside. If the cans are facing the wrong way, this will increase the chance of flying debris. Proper placement ensures the proper closure to keep the items contained.)
• Our trucks don’t have the ability to pick up bulk items that are too big to fit in your containers. Please break down cardboard boxes. If you need to get rid of bulk items, you are more then welcome to bring those items to our location at 230 Van Wagner Rd,  Poughkeepsie. If you have multiple bags that do not fit inside your container, please call our office. (For our drivers safety, our drivers do not get out of the trucks)
