Toters and Bins
All trash must be placed in an Republic wheeled trash cart or a standard trash can. Republic offers upon request to the Town of Haymarket, a 96-gallon wheeled trash cart and 20 gallon recycling bin. Please remember, the resident is responsible for the maintenance and cleaning of the wheeled trash cart.

Trash carts, recycling bins and Recycle Bank carts remain the property of Republic Recycling and Trash Removal Services and are provided to our customers for the duration of service. Republic is not responsible for personal trash cans and lids or containers that are packed too tightly.
If you are a new resident and need a Trash Toter and/or Recycle bin or toter, please call the Town at 703-753-2600.
Pickup Items and Setout Requirements
We attempt to maintain the same scheduled service days unless otherwise noted (See Cancellations and Delays). It is difficult to duplicate pickup times due to uncontrollable circumstances that we may encounter day to day. To help ensure pickup, please have your trash and recycling staged and ready for pickup by 5:00 a. m. on collection day or the night before.

Safety Considerations
Tying lids to trash container may endanger our employees. Sharp objects, such as needles, razor blades, and knives, should be placed inside of durable plastic bottles, sealed with tape, placed in the trash and marked accordingly. Large pieces of glass should be duct taped along the edges with a large X taped in the center from corner to corner, to reduce the risk of injuries. Since ashes remain hot for several days, store them in a metal container outside of your house for a week prior to putting them out for pickup. Do not store valuable or important items in plastic trash bags. It is too easy for you to mix up the trash. Please use common sense in leaving items near your trash can on collection days. Our crews are trained to do a thorough job. Therefore, anything left within 10 feet of collection area or curb line may be collected as trash. Display your address prominently at your service location. This not only aids our collection crews, but emergency vehicles as well.
Municipal Solid Waste (Household Trash) & Special Pick-up
Our collection crews will collect all the household trash that is generated weekly by our customers and placed at the curb twice a week and in some areas once a week. For all other household items, such as, cleanout, appliances, furniture, carpet, construction material, and other large or bulky miscellaneous items require special attention. Please call town hall, to schedule your pickup of these items.

Brush and limbs must be cut into 4-foot lengths, bundled with rope or twine and should not exceed 50 pounds. Tree limbs that are larger than 6 inches in diameter and 4 feet in length will not be collected. All unbundled brush will be considered a special pick-up. Please contact Town Hall in advance to schedule your pickup of these items. Some special pickups have an additional cost. We provide a special collection for Christmas Trees up to 8 feet long on the first two Wednesdays in January. Please remove all decorations and tinsel before placing at the curb. Any trees not picked up by the second Wednesday in January will be collected with the trash starting the following week.
Weather Cancellations and Delays in Service
Republic Services at certain times may need to cancel or delay collection services due to weather, disasters, acts of God, emergencies or uncontrollable circumstances. Areas that remain unserviceable will be delayed until it is determined that our crews can operate safely and unobstructed. When delays in service occur, our crews will run all accessible routes as normal and continue into the next day until the route is complete. For up to date information concerning delays and cancellations, please call our Customer Service Center at 703-818-8222. We will make every effort to provide service as conditions allow. There will be no adjustment made to your bill for service cancellations or delays due to situation out of our control, such as: weather, unsafe road conditions, etc.
