Trash Collection Information

All of our vacation rental homes provide a trash container or dumpster. Trash must be placed in the designated container and rolled to the edge of the street the night before your designated pick-up day. Please remember to roll containers back to the house and store them away from the street during non-collection days. Trash pick up for some areas is determined by location.
