Leaving your garbage bags on the pavement when not collected contributes to criminal activity. It causes more movement in streets in residential areas and more opportunities for criminal elements to shop around. Only put out your garbage bags on the day that removal is scheduled for your area and take your bags in if not collected.

This also helps prevent dogs from tearing your bags and makes your area safer. Also, remember never to put any-thing in your garbage bags that has all your details on it. Always shred confidential information. Let’s work together to make our town a safer place.
