  • Bulk waste. Discarded household furniture, appliances, stoves, washing machines and similar items shall be placed at the curbside or beside the service alley in a location accessible to the collector vehicle. All lids or doors shall be securely sealed or otherwise prepared to prevent entry and entrapment. Such items shall be removed by the contractor after the owner or occupant of the premises has made arrangements for a special pick up. Items shall be removed on the next regular working day after receipt of the request at no additional charge.

    Bulk yard waste. Large cuttings of vegetative and wood matter which are part of normal yard maintenance but which cannot be cut for placement in a container or bundle due to the excessive weight or size of the yard waste shall be reasonably stacked. Bulk yard waste shall be of a type readily handled by collector and shall not exceed four (4) feet in length or fifty (50) pounds in weight. Such items shall be collected by the contractor after the owner or occupant of the premises has made arrangements for a special pick up.

    Other special services. Construction debris, roofing, concrete, tires, auto parts, engines, tree trunks and other items not included in the definition of garbage, trash, yard waste, hazardous waste, industrial waste or infectious waste shall be picked up at an extra charge to the customer. Professional tree service companies are responsible for disposing of the resident's debris. All charges for other special services shall be mutually agreed upon by the contractor and the owner or occupant of the premises prior to removal.
