How do i find out about trash and recycling stuff?

I want to make sure that the house I buy is in a place where trash comes twice a week and they pick up recycling, that i don't have to drop it off. Is there a place where I can see that?

Local phone call to public works will get you all squared away. If it is Irwin PA, the phone number is: (724) 864-3100. Good luck! Keith Jean-Pierre Managing Principal The Dapper Agents Operations In: NY, NJ, FL & CA

Call the city or township's public works department and ask. They'll tell you the pickup schedule, what gets picked up, and if there are any extra fees. You can also check the city's website - most have trash and recycling info under services or public works. If it's a private service, ask the seller who they use and what it costs. In some areas you have to arrange your own pickup, which can be a pain. Just confirm before you buy so there's no surprises.

Hi Jim I would contact the HOA or city where you are looking to find out what is customary in that area.

If your town (or the place you are house hunting) has a local public works department, I would start there.
