[StBernard] St. Bernard Parish Government to mail identification stickers for garbage cans to ensure only one per household is parish funded

[Westley Annis]

good idea
 
Just a little added humor, residents could write the number of people in the
household on the sticker before placing it in the bin and sanitation workers
could do the census and trash collection at the same time. Save the
government all kinds of money.

Place parish decal on top of cans when they arrive in water bills

 

St. Bernard Parish Government is mailing decals in this month's water bills
that must be placed on one garbage can at each house with an active water
meter account as part of St. Bernard's effort to enforce the one can per
household garbage collection program.  Residents who currently have two or
more cans should contact SDT to arrange for collection of their second and
additional cans at curbside.

AS SOON AS RESIDENTS RECEIVE THE DECAL IN THEIR WATER BILL, THEY SHOULD
IMMEDIATELY PLACE THE STICKER ON THE TOP OF THE LID OF THEIR GARBAGE CAN.

Only cans with this sticker on the top lid will be counted as eligible for
pick up as part of the parish government's twice a week pick up schedule
with SDT.  Second and additional cans that are signed up separately with SDT
will be issued a different identifying sticker by SDT.  Cans without a
sticker will be removed by SDT during the normal pick-up days. Small
businesses using can service will follow the same guidelines.  

Any questions regarding the program should be directed to St. Bernard Parish
Government at 278-4200.
