Do not block garbage bins with bulky waste

in Bulletins / By: Department of Waste Management on May 28, 2018 at 2:27 PM /

PRESS RELEASE: Residents are asked to stop blocking community bins with bulky waste.

When bins are blocked, garbage trucks are unable to clear their contents, and this leaves an unsightly build-up of trash
Trash build-up harbours rodents, flies and other vectors
Dispose of your garbage properly, especially your bulky items by transporting them directly to the incinerator

What you do can affect your community. Let’s work together to keep the BVI clean and green!

You need to be realistic. A lot of folks dont have the money or means to transport bulky items to Pockwood. They dont want to dump them but they just have no choice. Offer a weekly collection service from each dumpster for bulky waste and ask people to refrain from putting items out more than 12 hours before collection time.
