Unincorporated Boulder County South with No Food Scraps

Welcome to Unincorporated Boulder County South Residential Services (no food scraps included in compost service)

Boundaries: east of Highway 36, but west of 39th Street (or 26th Street) and south of Nelson Road.  Crestview Estates, Lake of the Pines HOA and the town of Eldorado Springs up to the Park entrance are also included.  No other locales west of Highways 93 and 36 are included in this area.

Trash collection: Trash service is sold in 32-gallon units with carts provided by Western available in 32, 64, or 96-gallon sizes. Rates are based on cart size. Trash is collected every week.

Optional trash service: Prepaid bags.  For those of you who don’t generate enough trash to fill a 32-gallon cart each week, you may purchase a box of 35 specifically marked trash bags that you can put out for collection when needed.  The cost of collecting these bags whenever they are set out is included in their purchase price.  If you put out no more than two of the bags per month, you can save money compared to subscribing for regularly scheduled service.  As with regularly scheduled service, Western will supply you with recycling carts and will collect the recyclables bi-weekly.  There is a monthly charge for the recyclables and compostables collection in addition to the cost of the prepaid trash bags.

Set-out time: 7:00 a.m.

Recyclables Collection
Recyclables Collection: Unlimited single-stream recyclables collection is included in the cost of the trash service you select. You select the cart size that works best for you. If you need more than one cart for your recyclables, there is a charge of $1.00 per month for each additional cart. Recyclables are collected every other week.

Compostables Collection
Compostables Collection: 96 gallons of compostables (yard waste only, no food scraps) is included in your trash service.  If you need more than one cart for your compostables, there is a charge of $2.00 per month for each additional cart.  Compostables are collected every other week.
