Trash Chutes
In some buildings, chutes accept bagged trash only — no boxes, no large items. Break down boxes and dispose of them properly, and never force oversized items down a chute.
No Early or Loose Trash
Don't leave trash outside except on collection days, and always use the official CR&R carts following the 'What Goes Where' guidelines.
Construction & Renovation Waste
Remodeling debris is not part of standard residential collection and usually requires a private dumpster or hauler. See our construction debris removal service.
Mutual-Specific Rules
Third Mutual, United Mutual and the Towers may each have additional internal rules on placement, access and bulky items. When in doubt, check with Resident Services — or let us handle it; we know the rules mutual by mutual.
