HOA Waste Disposal Page
Chair: Stuart Graber
The Waste Disposal Committee shall be responsible for negotiating the waste disposal contract, maintenance and dispensing of dumpster lock keys
There are 3 Dumpsters located on the West Entrance of our HOA (the closest entrance to Durango). Two of these are dedicated to Recycling while the other bin is solely for garbage.

REMINDER: DO NOT put plastic bags or glass in the Recycling bins.  Also, furniture, landscape materials, appliances, construction debris and other like items should not be placed in the Garbage OR Recycle bins.  When placing recyclables into the bin(s), please break down all cardboard boxes and lie them flat as far away from the bin door as you can.
Thank you... The Management!

NON-recyclable items include glass, any type of plastic bags, plastic bubble wrap, styrofoam in any form and any wood products.  Fluorescent bulbs, batteries, and electronics are also not allowed (Click Here to find out where to recycle these items).  When you place any of these items in the recycle container, there's a great possibility that the ENTIRE LOAD will be rejected at the recycle center and discarded as trash.
