Here are a few tips to keep your bin clean in the midst of the dog days of summer!

Football season is around the corner. 🏈 Don't forget these reminders when cleaning up after the tailgate:

⭐ Set Up a 2-Bin System: Place trash and recycling bins side-by-side.

⭐Empty Before You Toss: Liquid ruins recyclable materials. Pour out leftover ice and drinks before tossing cans and bottles into the recycling bin.

⭐Know What Belongs: Dirty paper plates, greasy napkins, plastic cutlery, and cups go straight into the trash; they cannot be recycled.

⭐Cool the Grill Safely: Let charcoal cool completely. Never pour hot ash into household trash, plastic bags, or standard stadium dumpsters.

⭐Run a 60-Second Sweep: Before heading to your seats or going inside for kickoff, do a quick pass to catch stray bottle caps, napkins, and wrappers.

A few end of summer reminders:

❇️ Use caution when passing GFL trucks, especially through narrow streets. Remember to drive slow, check for workers and oncoming traffic, and ensure there is plenty of clearance.
❇️ On hot days, our drivers tend to start their routes early to beat the heat. Help them out by setting out your bins early, ideally the night before.

Thank you for helping us have a smooth end to summer!

Beating the heat, one route at a time. 🌡️ High summer temperatures demand a lot from those working outdoors. We want to extend a huge thank you to our drivers and operators out in the field right now.

During these very hot days, our drivers are front-loading routes as much as possible. Please help them out and have your carts out by the curb by 7 am or the night before. Stay cool out there, everyone!

This National Grilling Month, don't forget rules about disposing of propane🚫🔥

NEVER throw propane tanks or gas cylinders into regular trash bins. They are hazardous items that can explode under pressure.

Instead, take them to your designated hazardous waste facility. Find info for Springfield here: https://bit.ly/3T37Op7
