Good to know

Set items on your front porch, not at the curb. Keep chemicals in their original labeled containers (motor oil and cooking oil can go in any container with a screw-top lid). Lids must be spill-proof. Put small items in a labeled plastic bag. You don't need to be home. Items set out without a booking are not picked up.
