Does Sweetland, Ltd. have the big cans on wheels?
Even better, we allow YOU to choose your can.
You can use a large can on wheels (we have 96 gallon toters available for purchase at our cost, and we deliver free of charge) or go with
smaller, more manageable cans if you choose.
All we ask is that it has a lid, and don't you worry
about losing that; we put the lid back on for you!
When will my garbage be picked up?
When our trucks fill up, we need to go out to the
landfill so we cannot give specific times to our
customers. We ask that all of your trash be at
the curb by 7:00 AM, and we will do our best to pick
it up by 7:00 PM.
What should I do with really heavy items?
The best solution is to use more bags and more cans.
A 50 gallon can full of loose grass clippings may be
too heavy for our driver to lift. If they are
bagged into manageable loads we can easily take them
for you without using the winch. We generally
prefer to not use the winch on your heavy cans as it
may damage the can itself. Other items to
package in small quantities include spoiled food,
cat litter, magazines, leaves, pumpkins, carpet, and
anything wet.
Can I put my garbage in a cardboard box?
It is generally better to use a garbage can since
the boxes seem to know when they are about to go in
the hopper and the bottoms give way just then.
This is especially true when they are wet.
What should I do with "packing peanuts" and shredded
paper?
We prefer that they are in a tied garbage bag.
This helps us keep them in the truck instead of all
over your neighborhood.
