Good to know
Use only the bag CWD sends and close it tight. Do not put pool chemicals in the bag, since they can start a fire. Put electronics, car batteries and fluorescent tubes in a cardboard box next to the bag. Set it by your front door or garage where it can be seen from the street, never at the curb.
