My trash cart is missing, what can I do?

First, give us a call and we will give you the serial numbers of the carts assigned to you. Many times carts get blown away after a heavy storm and more often than not the cart can be found in a neighbor’s house. Check the carts down at least one block in either direction. Next, once you’ve found your cart, be sure to affix your house number on the back of the cart as per town specs. That will make it easier to find the next time around.


Purchasing a New One

If you’ve done some investigating and still cannot find your cart you are welcome to purchase a new one.
