Garbage must be placed in standard type garbage containers with handles and tight fitting lids. Covers can not be attached to the can. Containers are not to exceed 45 gallons capacity or 75 lbs when full. The District is not liable for the loss or damage of your receptacle. Plastic bags may be used, however they must be tied and not over filled so they do not tear.
In November, 2016, the Slow Down to Get Around law went into effect in New York State and requires drivers to slow down when passing waste and recycling collection vehicles when the vehicle's safety lights are flashing.
