Trash Pickup

It is all about Lionism

The Etowah Lions Services picks up residential household trash within an eight mile radius of Etowah.

We are community minded and the proceeds stay in the community and promote Lionism worldwide.

 

Bag color, blue, green, clear?? Where do we get em?  Blue bags for recycling have been available for years in our local area.  If your local store does not have them, ask.  They will more than likely order them in. 

Sort:  Bag A:  Mixed paper (anything that is not food stained or meant to keep moister in or out) includes, news, junk mail, catalogs, magazines, phone books.  

Bag B:  Plastic bottles, jugs, jars, glass (no lids, throw them away) along with your soup and vegetable cans.  No Yogurt, medicine bottles or food containers.  The intent, for now, is Plastic Bottles (soda type bottles or water bottles, milk or water jugs 1gal type, and peanut butter jars.  Lids are trash.  If and when this changes we will let you know. This is how it is accepted at the Transfer station.  

You can have as many bags, of recycling, as you need as long as they are sorted per the above instructions.  

You may see the garbage truck pick up your recycle material and throw it in the back.  Rest assured that close by the recycle truck is awaiting to recieve.  Look down your road.  The recycling truck is a bit bigger and will find it hard to manuever in tight spots. 

If your recycling was left, it is probably because it is not your week for pickup.  We will all get into a routine so lets all work together.

Trash is still limited to three - 33 gallon bags of trash per week. All trash must be bagged.  Loose trash will be left.  Trash Pickup is weekly, recycling is every other week.  Recycling is picked up on your normal trash day. 

Bring corrugated cardboard to the drop off location please. 

 

We'd like to welcome Mr. David Hayes.  He is responsible for the recycle truck.  We now employ 6 community members, putting people back to work!

Recycling

We have a drop off convenience center for the community. We accept mixed paper, corrugated cardboard, Aluminum cans, inside. *NEW* Bag glass, Bottles, Jugs and Jars (No lids on any of the before mentioned items), soup and vegetable cans together and place in trailer or on ground, outside.

This is all done inside the fence so if the gate is closed DO NOT leave your items. We are concerned about our neighbors.

Those living on private roads need to clear at least a 9 foot wide and 14 foot high path for the trucks. If you cannot, bring your trash to the main road. Let us know when you have performed this maintenance. We are tearing up our trucks to service your account.  The Recycling truck will not be able to get into these roads.  So please make way for them or bring it out to the main road.  

We only service within a certain area so call today.  891-3071

We have never charged our customers a fuel surcharge. 

We DO offer recycling, special pickup, curbside, driveway service, convenience center.

You see the name of the Etowah Park?  This is a Lions & County cooperative project, made possible by the Etowah Lions Club members.  To date we have put in over 100 thousand hours of volunteer time.  $500 thousand dollars of money and donated plants and supplies.  The Etowah Lions purchased the tract of land the park sits on in 1998 and it has been a work in progress ever since.  This is one of many reasons to use the Etowah Lions Trash Service.
