New Trash Service beginning January 1

Just a reminder that the Lake Houston Community Association/The Enclave’s new trash service with Best Trash begins January 1. Please note that Tuesday, January 1 is a Best Trash holiday; our first & only trash collection this week will be Friday, January 4, 2019.

From Best Trash:

HOLIDAYS: If your regular collection day falls on a holiday (New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, July 4th – Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day), the collection will be made on the next regularly scheduled collection day.

GARBAGE COLLECTION: On each regularly scheduled collection day, Best Trash will collect residential refuse located at the curbside. Please have the trash out at the curb no later than 7 am. Please make sure it is not blocked by any vehicles.

Items excluded from normal collection are dirt, rocks, bricks, concrete, tires, batteries, motor oil, cooking oil, waste generated by a private contractor or any materials or items deemed hazardous material. Please do not dispose of gasoline, tile, motor oil, paints, cooking oil, or any other liquid items in a container that are not visible to Best Trash personnel. If such items results in spillage that causes a stain, Best Trash is not responsible for the cleanup. Best Trash will leave a tag explaining the reason for any non-collected item(s).

Trees, scrubs, brush trimmings and fencing must be bundled/tied in lengths no greater than 4 feet with no branch diameter exceeding 3 inches. The bundling is required to allow quick pickup and size limitations are required to avoid damaging the equipment in the compacting process.

Items such as appliances, furniture, mattresses, carpet (up to 1 room, rolled up four feet wide and less than 40 pounds, bundled and tied), will be picked up on both of your collection days. By Federal Law, refrigerators, freezers, and any other items containing Freon must be drained of Freon and have an accompanying bill to validate such service was performed.
