What goes in your trash can?

• Regular household trash.
  This includes any or all of the following: food waste such as last month’s Chinese take-out, toiletries, kitty litter, your father-in-law’s hair piece, the neighbor kid’s drum sticks, etc.
• Do not place these items in your trash cart:
  Household hazardous waste such as paint, motor oil, gasoline
  Rocks, concrete, yard debris or dirt
  Hot ashes
  Debris from construction, remodeling or demolition
• Heavy items requiring a special pickup

Special refuse collection

So, what do you do with an old sofa or refrigerator? First consider donating items to an organization or thrift shop (remember, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure). If that doesn’t work, just give us a call and we can schedule a pickup of your oversized or bulky items. A fee will be charged for special handling of these items.

Holiday Schedule

East Coast Sanitation is closed for service on the following holidays:
