Trash & recycling
Trash may be placed curbside between 5:30 A.M. and 9:00 A.M only, Monday through Saturday. Notification of holiday schedules affecting trash pickups will be posted by Management on the bulletin boards.
RCG has recently implemented recycling bins to the left of the main office. Please feel free to use this area to recycle between Thursdays.
