• Curbside Pickup Information

  
  CR&R Recommends the Following On Collection Day

  • Containers should be placed at curbside no later than 6:30 a.m. on collection day.
  • Please place your carts side-by-side approximately one (1) foot apart and at least three (3) feet from any obstruction (i.e. car, fire hydrant, trees).
  • Place your carts with the handles and wheels facing towards your home.
  • Containers should be removed from curbside within 12 hours after service.
  • Each resident may select a set of specially designed automated containers with attached lid and wheels.
  • Customers are allowed two free overage pickups per year on their regular collection day of material that does not fit in the refuse cart. Each pickup may be the equivalent of three large trash bags or boxes. Additonal pick ups over your first two are available at a nominal charge. It is suggested that you call customer service to verify an overage collection.

  CR&R is requesting that each resident separate their recyclable materials.

  • The black container is for regular refuse.

  • If you have a green container, it is for green/yard waste.

• Recycling

  
  Christmas tree collection will begin on December 26th for a two week period. Please remove all ornaments, lights, stands, and cut the tree in half if over 6 feet tall. If possible, please place your tree bottom first and upright in your green waste container. If you cannot use the green waste container or do not have one, place your tree curbside on your service day and our tree collectors will come by in a separate truck, there is no need to call the office.

  It's important to identify and remove materials unsuitable for recycling. Please review this section for more information on what's acceptable and unacceptable for Recycling. If you have questions about how to join the recycling program in your area, or plan a clean-up project, please contact the office located closest to you.

• Hazardous Waste

  
  Collection of Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) is now available at your front door, free of charge.

  • Mercury thermostats and thermometers
  • Aerosol cans that contain hazardous materials
  • Latex, oil, or water based paint
  •  Fluorescent Light Tubes, High Intensity Discharge Lamps
  •  Solvents, Cleaning Products
  • Sharps in a one-way protection container.

  Please call our customer service department at (877) 728-0446 to schedule
  your free pick up. This service is provided with no additional cost. Be prepared to provide the Customer Service Representative with specific information on quantities of each item. They will assist you by explaining how to prepare your material for collection.

  For safety and compliance, we must observe the following:

  A maximum of 15 gallons or 125 pounds may be transported per vehicle, per trip (Department of Transportation Requirement). It is illegal for CR&R to exceed these limits.

  • Containers larger than five gallons will not be accepted.
  • Containers will NOT be returned.
  • Materials should be in original containers (except motor oil, fuels and antifreeze).
  • All containers must have lids, be sturdy, non-leaking, labeled and
    protected from breakage.
  • Do not combine different types of waste.
  • Do not mix oil-base paint with latex paint.
• Electronic Waste

  
  Electronic waste (E-waste) is an item such as a computer monitor, television, cell phone or other like materials. Due to the high amounts of lead and chemicals found in E-waste, they are not allowed into local landfills.

  Refrigerators contain Freon and other chemicals which require special handling as well. CR&R will collect these items from your residence.  To arrange a curbside pick-up for E-waste or a refrigerator, please use our Online Scheduling Service.

• Bulky Items

  
  Items that cannot fit in your automated containers, such as a chair or a couch, are considered "bulky items." A bulky item is an object that can be handled by a two-person crew and may include washers, dryers, sofas or other large materials. Each residential customer is entitled to two (2) bulky item pick-ups free of charge per calendar year. Additional bulky item pick-ups will be provided for a nominal charge. To make arrangements for a bulky item pick-up on your regular waste collection day, please use our Online Scheduling Service.

  CR&R makes it easy to request special services in your area. Please contact the office located closest to you with details about your special needs. A service representative will then contact you with more information about the appropriate resources. Whether it's collection, containers, recycling or other services, CR&R is here to help.
