Card Board Trash Removal
 
New to the Villages.
What is the best way to get rid of card board boxes from a furniture delivery? Do I put it out front or is there a dumpster near my Chitty Chatty home?
Thanks

I would put them out for the regular trash. I don't think The Villages even has dumpsters for use by residents.

Flatten and put out with your trash on pick up day.

Agreed. We were a bit embarrassed about how many boxes we were putting out the first few weeks but no problem getting them picked up

"When in doubt, put it out," has been working for me for years. I had an old grill and they sent for a special truck to pick it up.

Same here - furniture boxes one week then moving boxes for about three more. All picked up with no issue.

Post them online on Next Door or this forum for those that might be moving or need to box things up to reuse!!

Good idea, we did not know about next door when we were getting rid of our boxes or we would have given them away

Break down boxes tie in bundles and put out with your trash..

Some areas still have recycling so I would definitely opt for that if it's available.

It's a shame to throw away perfectly usable boxes, such a waste. But...I guess that is what we do in this age, unfortunately.

Hi..does anyone have the number for bulk pick up at the new company that you put everything in one bag? I have looked everywhere and can only find Waste Management's info. Thanks.
