One Way Trash

Do you live in the Town of Lyons and have interest in compost services?

We've begun a pilot program that allows us to provide bi-weekly compost services for those in the town collected on Mondays. If you'd like more information or would like to sign up, please reach out to the office staff and they'll be more than happy to answer all your questions.

Also, we are looking for a handful of volunteers that would like to test out our animal resistant 64 gallon retrofit containers. We want to test the containers exclusively in the Town of Lyons where there is usual bear activity come spring. If you're interest in this as well, please relay your information to office personnel to be placed on a list. We will reach out in mid February to have the containers sent out.

Happy Friday everyone!

Good afternoon everyone,

We want to get a couple reminders out there to promote a smooth transition into the new year (I'm sure we can all agree we NEED 2022 to be better than the last two).

First hot item on the docket is our holiday schedule.
𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐧𝐨 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐥 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐.
The remaining holidays that One Way observes are on the weekend so we will not delay routing.

Second hot item on the docket (pun intended) is in regard to our restricted materials policy.
𝐃𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐩𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 & 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐬 (𝐞𝐬𝐩 𝐛𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬) 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐡 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬/𝐝𝐮𝐦𝐩𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬!
It could possibly blow your mind how often our trucks catch fire due to restricted materials. Most recently, we had a hidden load of 100+ electronics batteries from lap tops, cell phones, solar panels, etc. Some of the batteries exploded causing the other batteries and other various trash items to ignite in our brand new truck. Fortunately, our driver is ok and the truck doesn't have any catastrophic damage. Ashes are plenty good at reigniting themselves as well under the right conditions. I've even seen customers set their houses on fire by putting ashes into the trash container.

If you ever question what can get thrown away, we're one phone call/email away.

With that, we wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Good morning One Way customers! This is a friendly reminder regarding our holiday schedule. If a holiday does not fall on an actual route day being Monday through Friday there will be no delay for the week of services.

In this case, since the Fourth of July fell on a Sunday there was no impact to collection on Monday. There is no delay in services for the week of 07/07/2021 - 07/09/2021

If you have further questions or concerns regarding this information please contact the office during our business hours from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM

Have a wonderful rest of your week!
