Extra cardboard
- TCSD provides dumpsters for cardboard only outside the yard gate in the Tam Valley Community Center parking lot. Boxes must be broken down and clean, but they don’t need to be bound, Please do not include packing materials such as bubble wrap or Styrofoam. This will only contaminate the cardboard and force us to treat the bin as garbage. Also, please do not leave cardboard or boxes on the ground outside the dumpster, if the dumpster is full because it creates a mess and will contaminate the cardboard.
- TCSD will pick up extra cardboard at no charge. All cardboard boxes must be broken down, flattened, bound in 2 foot by 2 foot bundles with tape or twine, and placed next to your recycling cart on your pickup day. Loose cardboard will not be picked up.
