Are there any restrictions on the size or weight of trash bins?

CR&R Waste & Recycling typically imposes certain restrictions on the size and weight of trash bins to ensure safe and efficient collection and disposal services. Generally, the standard residential trash bins provided by CR&R are designed to accommodate typical household waste and have a predetermined capacity, often ranging from 64 to 96 gallons. Regarding weight, the company often has a limit on how heavy the bins can be when they are filled. This is to ensure that the collection vehicles can safely lift and transport the bins without causing damage to equipment or posing a safety hazard. Overfilling a bin can lead to issues, such as spills during collection or inability to properly handle the bin. It is advisable for residents to check with the current regulations and guidelines provided by CR&R for the specific weight limits and sizes permissible in their area. This information is usually available on the CR&R website. Understanding these restrictions will help ensure that residents have a smooth waste collection experience and their waste is disposed of properly.
