Set Out Tips
7:00 AM Collection To
ensure that your Blue Box materials are collected, place your Blue Box
out by
Clean
Blue Boxes Collection of materials from a Blue Box can sometimes be a downright sickening experience when maggots and other creatures have to be dealt with. Please make sure that cans and other recyclables are rinsed and that no food is left in the bottom. Please don't make our employees deal with materials that you yourself would not want to handle.
Mail
Box Users Don't forget the rural mail carrier when you set out your box. Blue Boxes are often placed out in a fashion that interferes with your mail delivery. Place your Blue Box in a visible location preferably beside as opposed to in front of your mail box.
No
Needles Please Many unusual and sometimes dangerous things have been found in the Blue Box. Hypodermic needles cause obvious fright to those who handle Blue Box materials. Neither needles nor syringes are recyclable and should not be placed in recycling containers. Contact your local pharmacist or hospital for proper disposal procedures.
Hide
And Seek Please don't hide your Blue Box. Be sure not to place it behind obstructions so that it can be clearly seen from the roadway. The Blue Box is the signal to the drivers to stop. If the box can't be seen, drivers have no reason to stop.
Flattening
Boxboard It
makes no sense to transport air around the countryside. If your
recycling truck collects cardboard and boxboard boxes that are not
broken down, we are transporting air since most of our trucks do not
compact materials. Help us make your recycling program as efficient as
possible. Break down and bundle cardboard boxes. Break down boxboard
boxes and stuff in largest boxboard box, such as a detergent or cereal
box.
