General Advisement:
If you have items that could possibly be given a new life, please post for FREE on the Big Canoe Online Exchange to keep usable items, for someone, out of the landfill. If you have glass for bulk trash, such as tabletops or shelves, contact Lisa Schnellinger at 706-669-9933. If you have other types of glass, other than wine bottles or food jars, check with her first before putting in the trash. Take wine bottles and food jars to the Cove Road Recycling Center.
Watch the traffic pattern and signs and please do not block the exit for those leaving the trash facility. Upon entry, you will be directed to either: 1. Trash lane or 2. Shredding only.
You need to show your BC member ID and pay for bulk trash disposal on your lot charge. The fee charged: $5 for cars, $7 for SUVs, and $10 for trucks. There is no charge for your household trash, cardboard, and recycling so drop off either before or after bulk trash.
Items that cannot be dropped off at regular or bulk trash: paints unless totally dried out, hazardous chemicals, fluorescent light bulbs, and tires.
