HELLO TOMAH! MEET YOUR NEW TOTES

The City of Tomah is transitioning to a TWO TOTE automated system for garbage and recycling. If you have received a tote with a yellow lid this will be for garbage only. The tote with a gray lid will be for recycling only and must be separated from normal garbage.

TIPS ON HOW TO PLACE TOTES OUT:

ð     PLACE CART OUT BY 7AM.

ð     TOTE MUST BE PLACED 3 FEET AWAY FROM ANYTHING, INCLUDING THE OTHER TOTE.

ð      DO NOT PLACE TOTE UNDER TREE BRANCHES.

ð      LID MUST BE SHUT.

ð      ARROWS SHOULD POINT TOWARDS THE ROAD.

ð      PLACE TOTE AT END OF DRIVEWAY, IF POSSIBLE, OR IN BOULEVARD AREA, WITHIN 1 FOOT FROM CURB LINE.

ð      CLEARING SNOW AFTER EACH SNOWFALL WILL MAKE IT EASIER TO MOVE YOUR TOTE TO ITS COLLECTION POINT. TOTE SHOULD SIT FLAT AND NOT PLACED ON A SNOW BANK.

ð      DO NOT PLACE TOTES IN STREET.

ð      RECYCLING SHOULD NOT BE BAGGED; ITEMS NEED TO BE PLACED LOOSLEY IN TOTE.7am
