For Stonehurst residents, collection for recycling is on Wednesdays. Please keep in mind the following do’s and don’ts when recycling:
- DO abide by the requested time: recycling should be put out no earlier than 6 pm Tuesday or no later than 6 am Wednesday.
- DON’T mix yard waste with your recycling. Yard waste must be bagged separately and put out on trash pick-up days.
- DO recycle the following items: plastic bottles, jugs, and food containers; aluminum and tin cans; cardboard and waxed food boxes; newspapers, magazines, and phone books. Glass is no longer being collected. You can either throw glass away or take it to the big purple bin off of Vaden drive for collection.
- DON’T forget to clean out any food containers, milk or juice bottles, or food boxes to be recycled. If you can’t clean it off, it isn’t recyclable!
If you have further questions, see our trash/recycling contractor’s web site (CS Waste) or Fairfax County’s Minimum Recycling Requirements (http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/dpwes/recycling/minimum.htm)
Trash and yard waste are picked up on Tuesdays and should be placed outside your back gate no earlier than 6 pm the evening before or no later than 6 am the day of pick-up. Bailey Lane residents without sidewalks behind their gates (9243-9281) should use the dropoff spot at the bottom of Bailey near the drainage area.
Recycling is picked up on Wednesdays and the trash placement rules apply to recycling. Please don't place your items out early!
The following are guidelines from our Trash contractor as to what and how trash and recycling is accepted. Please note if trash or recycling is not properly separated or put out on the correct days, this can result in a fine to our Trash contractor by Fairfax County.
