Trash Collection Update for Town of Orange Residents
By: Town of Orange Public Works Department
Residents within the Town of Orange should be aware of changes to trash collection that began this month. Each residence will receive one Town - owned and issued 95 - gallon cart. A second can be requested by calling the Town of Orange Public Works Office at (540) 672 - 4791 (an additional monthly charge will apply). Issued carts will come with either a blue or orange lid, which help identify which day of the week will be its collection day. Carts with blue lids will be issued to west side residents. Trash will be collected from these carts on Mondays. Carts with orange lids will be issued to east side residents. Their collection day will Tuesdays. Town of Orange Public Works reminds residents to please have their carts out, in a location that provides easy access, by 7:00 a.m. on collection day. Be sure that lids are closed to keep rain and wildlife out of the carts. The new carts can hold a significant amount of trash, and all trash MUST be placed in the cart for pickup. Effective July 1, 2024, loose bags placed outside of the carts will no longer be collected. Only properly bundled cardboard and bundled/tied brush will be collected if left outside of a cart. If a resident has a special circumstance, such as an accessibility or medical concern that prevents them from being able to manage the 95 - gallon cart, two 45 - gallon carts can be provided upon request, if approved. Those with questions should contact the Town of Orange Public Works Department at (540) 672 - 4791 or email k.strawser@townoforangeva.gov.
