Temporary Changes to Trash and Recycling Service Due to COVID-19
To help protect the health of their frontline workers, Republic Services has asked us to comply with the following trash collection changes:
- All trash must be bagged and the bagged tied at the top. No loose trash can be dumped into carts.
- No Bulky Waste pickup. Everything must be contained within a cart (this can be automatically lifted into a truck without human assistance).
- Please give your driver space and avoid contact when they are servicing your property.
Community Shred Day will be scheduled at a later date.
Looking for Ways to Reduce Single Use Plastics in Lake Oswego?
Here are few suggestions on reducing your own plastics usage.
Lake Oswego offers “comingled” recycling, meaning that everything that can be recycled goes into the same container, with the exception of glass. It is very important that trash not end up in the recycling as it will contaminate the entire load. Remember: when in doubt, leave it out.
What can (and can not) go into my recycling cart?
