Trash Collection Information

Single Family/Townhouse: Yard Waste/Trash/Recycle 

Trash disposal and storage of trash cans has become a problem in Spring Ridge. We want to remind residents of the rules and procedures to dispose of trash and to store trash cans in the community.

“ARTICLE IX, Section 9.02 (e): “Trash and garbage containers shall not be permitted to remain in public view except on days of trash collection and after 6 pm on days prior to trash collection. Trash shall be stored in closed metal containers or containers constructed of other suitable materials. No incinerator shall be kept or maintained on any Lot.”

We ask residents that when disposing of household trash to place trash bags inside container before putting trash out for collection at the curbside. Please do not place individual trash bags on the curbside. Animals will get into the trash bags and spread trash all over the community, making the community look very unkempt.

The same applies to your recycling— during recycle collection days make sure recycling is secured inside the recycle container.

Yard waste should be put out on the curbside inside proper landscape paper bags. Large branches should be cut in small sections no larger than 3 feet and bundled up before being put curbside for collection.

All containers (yard waste, trash, recycling) should only be taken to curb for collection at 6 pm on days prior to collection. All trash containers should be put away from “public view” no later than the end of the trash collection day. When not in use, trash cans should be kept in the garage, backyard, or screened from public view.
