General Information
Proper Bin Placement- We ask that you place your bins on your driveway and not the grass. The bins need to be at least 4' apart
from one another, at least 4 - 6' from any mailboxes, and at least 12' from any parked vehicles that may be in front of your residence. Also, make sure the wheels on your bin are facing your house. If you choose to place your bins on your grass and there is damage we are not liable for any damage done by our truck.
Our trucks are equipped with an automated arm so it is very important that our drivers have enough clearance so that they are able to service your bins. If there is anything blocking your bins they will not be able to service them. If you would like more
information on how to place your bins in a more efficient way for both you and our drivers, please visit www.kansascitydisposal.com
Trash Bin- You are confined to this bin and al trash needs to be bagged. If the bin is overflowing and the lid is not able to close your trash will not be picked up. If you were to fix the overflowing bin there will be a $25 return fee for us to come back. Anything that does not fit inside this container will require an overage sticker.
Overage stickers may be purchased through KC Disposal via phone or in person, purchased via phone, we send you your stickers right away. As soon as you receive your stickers you may use them for your extra bags. Items we do not take in our trash bin are paint cans, tires, and yard waste. *Please note we are not able to pick up any bagged trash outside your bin without an overage sticker attached. Each sheet of stickers contains 5 stickers and costs $15.
*IMPORTANT*
We do ask that you have your bins out by 6:00 a.m. on your pick-up day to ensure our drivers are able to service your bins. Our trucks are equipped with 360 cameras so if there is an issue we should be able to figure out what's going on. Please follow
these simple steps to ensure your bins are serviced in a timely manner.
*If you miss getting your trash, recycling or yard waste out and need us to come back to pick ti up, there is a $25 return fee that will need to be paid prior to us sending a truck back.
BULKY ITEM PICKUP: Once a year five (5) free bulk items (no appliances). Date to be determined at a later date. All other bulks are to be paid for by the residents, not the HOA. Please see information in announcements for more information on bulk item pick up and dates.
Recycling
KC Disposal will provide you with a recycle cart to use while you have our service (it will have a green lid). The recycle cart is required for our services if the recycle that doesn't fit inside the cart may be put in a container or the extra boxes need to be flattened and bundled together. Please make sure the recycling lid closes. The cardboard can be cut to 3' x 4' sections and tied with string or twine and set on the ground next to the cart for pick up.
Our recycling is unlimited but please do not overload your recycling bin, as the lid does need to be closed. Al
boxes inside and outside your bin will need to be broken down flat. The additional boxes outside the bin should be broken down
and bundled (no larger than 3'x 4' sections). If you have any loose recycling that will not fit inside of the recycling cart, use either a small container or box to be placed next to the cart.
