Important Reminders:
Trash cans should be placed six feet from any obstacles and it is recommended to have trash cans at least 1.5 feet from another trash can (See diagram of can placement)
Please bag your trash. You will reduce the occurrence of littering as the material is transferred from your can to the truck. Also, keep your cans clean. This will discourage disturbance by animals.
May 25/26, 2022 Spring Cleanup
Residential customers may put out extra trash on your regular trash day. Please keep extra bags or boxes three feet away from trash cans. On your regular trash day, you may put out six extra bags, boxes, or cans of trash. No large items (appliances, furniture, etc.) or hazardous waste (tires, batteries, paint, etc.)
May 18/19, 2022 Limb Pickup
Residential customers may put out limbs on your regular trash day. Limbs need to be bundled with rope and the bundles must be no larger than two feet around and four feet high. Keep bundles at least three feet away from trash cans.
Bear-Proof containers
At the May 2022 Gardnerville Town Board meeting the Board approved offering bear-resistant trash containers to residents upon request. The containers will be picked up on a weekly basis just like the trash containers now in use. Residents would need to reimburse the Town for the direct cost to provide these totes. The cost per tote is approximately $300. The containers carry only the manufacturer’s 6-year warranty. The Town of Gardnerville does not service or replace these containers.
These containers are meant to be left outside so you do not have to worry about bears breaking into your garage because of odors.
