COLLECTION DAY INFORMATION AND CART PLACEMENT
Here are a few tips for properly placing your cart on collection day.
RaeKar will be using an automatic side load truck which will be a method of collection for Savannah residents. The following instructions will help ensure your cart is properly emptied.
PARK IT: Carts should be placed within 3 feet of the street by 6 A.M. on your collection day.
POINT IT: Carts should be facing forward with the serial number toward the street. The wheels and handles should be placed away from the street.
SPACE IT: Carts should have a minimum of 3 feet of clearance on both sides. Please do not place any closer than 2 feet to poles, mailboxes, or other obstructions. Carts should be unobstructed (no vehicles parked in front of the cart).
