Best Trash takes great pride in our recycle program. Ensuring the best recycle program for our customers takes time and effort
on both sides. Please remove caps, liquids and food products from inside the containers. Please only use the provided recycle
cart for recyclable materials. The green recycle cart is NOT an extra trash container and will NOT be emptied as such. If items
exceed container capacity, please place them adjacent to the cart well marked as recyclable materials. Cardboard is recyclable,
please break down all boxes flat, and place them next to the recycle bin for collection.
BIN CARE & MAINTENANCE:
Best Trash will provide each current residence with ONE 48-gallon recycling cart. Best Trash will replace any recycle cart that are defective or otherwise become unusable due to normal wear and tear. Lost or stolen recycle carts can be replaced at $85.00 each by calling Best Trash or emailing Customerservice@besttrashtexas.com.
