This Memorial Day Weekend we want to HONOR all of those that have made our freedom possible. If not for them, our opportunities to go after our dreams would be limited. We want to THANK all who have served and are serving our Country. (Don’t forget to read below for your Memorial Day Discount)

Some fun facts for your Memorial Day Weekend…

You might find yourself blurting out some of this “trashy” trivia on your Memorial Day Cookout this weekend.

Did you know…
That the average American throws away almost 5 pounds of trash a DAY.
Every day in the U.S., we throw away enough garbage to fill around
63,000 garbage trucks… a DAY! At least 1/3 of that is from the snazzy packaging we discard.

Can you guess…
What is New York’s number one export? Waste paper. Who knew!

Can you guess…
What is made from recycled glass?
Hint… try bottles, fiber glass insulation, and materials used in
building roads and construction.

Did you know…
It takes on average 6 weeks for an aluminum can to be remelted and put back on those store shelves? And it saves 90-95% less energy to produce an aluminum can if it’s being recycled than it would to create new ones.
That is fairly impressive.

Holiday Waste Pickup Schedule

Arwood Waste wants to celebrate all the holidays with you too. This is why we created a Holiday Pick-up schedule so you can make arrangements and placement of your waste material while we spend time with our families. Businesses that currently receive collection may have different schedules and procedures than residential customers since business garbage is normally collected separately from residential garbage.

Call us toll free at 1-800-477-0854 today and ask us how we can save you time and money.

Collection service will be postponed by one day following these holidays:

• New Year’s Day – No Service on January 1st. One day delay. Example; Tuesday collection day will be serviced on Wednesday.
• Fourth of July – No Service on July 4th. One day delay. Thursday collection day will be serviced on Friday.
• Labor Day – No Service on the first Monday of September. One day delay. Monday collection day will be serviced on Tuesday.
• Thanksgiving Day – No Service on the last Thursday of November. One day delay. Thursday collection day will be serviced on Friday.
• Christmas Day – No Service on December 25th. One day delay. Example; Wednesday collection day will be serviced on Thursday.
• Halloween Day – We will be providing service on October 31st. If the route is delayed and cannot be finished before dusk we will finish the route the next business day.
• National Garbage Man Day – We will be providing service on June 17th as scheduled. Please remember to throw up your hand with a simple smile and say “Thank You”.

Due to the one day postponement, the collection of containers is resumed as follows: If the holiday is on a Monday, then the Monday collection will occur on Tuesday, Tuesday collection will occur on Wednesday, and so on. If the holiday is on a Thursday, then the Thursday collection will occur on Friday and Friday collection will occur on Saturday for that week only. On all other holidays, normal collection of containers will occur. If a holiday falls on the weekend, then pickups will run on a normal schedule unless otherwise specified.

Mr. Squirrel wants to say “Happy Earth Day!”

National Garbage Man Day supports Earth Day

Let’s do our part and contribute to the global effort to make our world more sustainable and environmentally friendly. We believe that our children and the generations to come deserve to live in a healthy world. To help us all get started, check out The Recycle Guide, a free resource packed with information to help you start preserving the Earth today!

Here’s a bit of what you will learn from The Recycle Guide:

Learn What to Recycle

Did you know that not everything can be recycled? While we wish it could, there are some Do’s and Don’ts when it comes to recycling. Head over to The Recycle Guide’s recycling rules and etiquette page to learn everything you need to know.

Why Recycling Matters

Were you aware that the average person generates over 4 pounds of trash every day and about 1.5 tons of solid waste per year? Those kinds of numbers really add up quick. Knowledge is power and knowing the impact that your recycling actions can have on the environment is an important factor in the decisions you make each day. Check out this information and you’ll be amazed how much recycling matters.

Find out Where You Can Recycle

Do you know the difference in a landfill, sorting facility, and a dump? Knowing the right place to take your waste will help you stay consistent with recycling all year long. The Recycle Guide has easy to use resources to help you find the closest facility.

Free Learning Resources

If you’re a teacher looking for resources to help your students or a parent trying to teach your kids about recycling, The Recycle Guide has the best free resources and links. The How to Recycle section, Recycling in Schools, and Recycling Activities are perfect places to start.

Find more information about recycling and the role your garbage workers play in the process at The Recycle Guide and National Garbage Man Day!

Don’t get green this St. Patrick’s Day from too much trash laying around

Allow Arwood Waste and our partners the pleasure of helping you go green by providing you with quality waste management services.

Here are three tips for Going Green this Spring:

1. Recycle

Not only does recycling paper and plastic help the environment, it saves room in your trash can – saving you money at your weekly trash pick up.

2. Compost

Throw scraps in your compost rather than your kitchen can. Your trash won’t stink and your plants and gardens will grow healthy and vibrant. It’s a win-win!

3. Walk or Ride Your Bike

Save some money, keep the air clean, and get some exercise – all at the same time.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day from Arwood Waste!
