  • 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.
    • The brown or blue container is for recyclables.
    • If you have a green container, it is for green/yard waste.

    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.

    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.

  • Hazardous Waste


    It is illegal to dispose of Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) through the automated residential collection program. HHW must be disposed of at a certified hazardous waste collection center. For the nearest collection center, please contact the office located closest to you.

    Household Hazardous Waste includes, but is not limited to:

    • Used Motor Oil
    • Solvents
    • Batteries
    • Cleaning Products
    • Wood Preservative
    • Old Paint
    • Pesticides
    • Pool Chemicals
    • Printer Cartridges
    • Old Road Flares
    • Fluorescent Lights
  • 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.

  • Special Services


    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.
