Do not place poly-cart in ditches or trenches.
If any trash beside bagged household garbage is in the poly-cart, (i.e. yard waste, wood products, dirt, toxic or hazardous waste, etc...) The poly cart will not be emptied.
If you have more garbage than one (1) poly-cart can hold, Please contact City, Town or Village Hall to request an additional poly-cart.
