Quincy Clean Solid Waste Disposal

The City of Quincy seeks to preserve its beautiful environment and works to collect and separate waste effectively. The collects about five hundred tons of garbage each year and recycles about thirty percent, over one hundred and fifty tons, of its solid waste. Accordingly, the City offers the Waste Watchers Handbook to help guide its residents on the best methods of waste disposal and recycling. The guide helps residents plan for collection days and prepare their waste for collection. It also details all recyclables that can be included in the special bins, which include:

• Corrugated cardboard and what is referred to as “chipboard.”
• Newspapers, magazines, and as of recently, junk mail.
• Tin cans, steel cans, and aluminum cans and other aluminum items.
• Emptied and rinsed plastic containers with lids removed.

Certain items, such as glass, cannot be included in recycling and must be taken to Quincy Recycle on the intersection of 6th and State Street. Quincy Recycle takes windows, galls, ceramic glass often found in cookware, and light bulbs.

Renting a Dumpster for Cheap

The price of renting a dumpster bin varies by location, disposal fees, taxes, and other items. That is why Easy Dumpster Rental guarantees its price so that you know that you get the best price in Quincy. At the same time, the price of a dumpster bin rental depends on the kind of waste that you are using the dumpster for. As such, our staff may help you to use a dumpster for only one kind of waste, such as construction and demolition debris, and finding other ways to dispose of other incidental items. If you have yard waste, for example, it can easily be self-hauled in Quincy to avoid putting it in a dumpster bin that is being used for construction and demolition waste or some other materials. Quincy offers a Yard Waste Collection Site at 711 West Radio Road that is open on weekdays and on Saturdays. The site makes it easy to bring in your lawn waste so that it does not sit on your lawn for lengthy periods of time, often killing the grass beneath and looking unseemly to neighbors. You can also buy woodchips at the site. Remember to bag grass clipping and keep branches to one inch in diameter and four feet in length.
