Public Works crews will be collecting bulk waste from October 1 through October 14 for the Free Fall Bulk Waste Collection.
Public Works will collect bulk waste on regularly-scheduled brush pickup days to prevent large piles of bulk waste on the curb during the collection process. Please
keep in mind that the volume of waste may delay pickup, but all bulk waste for the Free Fall Bulk
Waste Collection must be placed at the curb by 6:00 a.m. on regularly-scheduled brush pickup days. Please keep bulk waste at the curb until it is collected.
To view brush pickup days, visit www.recyclebn.org to use Recycle Coach online or download the Recycle Coach app from the Google Play Store or the App Store.
Users will not be charged for any amount of household bulk waste placed at the curb by the deadline on their regularly-scheduled brush pickup day.
After the Free Fall Bulk Waste Collection is complete, Public Works will charge: $25 per bucket (about 2.5 cubic yards) for household bulk waste and $100 per bucket for sod, dirt, concrete, rocks and shingles. Next year’s Free Spring Bulk Waste Collection will take place in May.
