🟩 GREEN TOTER UPDATE 🟩

Waste Management has notified us they will NOT be picking up any remaining green toters left around town.

If you still have one, please leave it curbside and either Meridian or our Grottoes Public Works crew will collect it as they make their way through town. If you prefer to keep it for your own use you may, but know that it will not be serviced by Meridian.

🚫 No need to call or email—just make sure it’s out by the street and we’ll take it from there!

Thanks for your patience as we finish up this transition and get these green giants out of the way. 💪🗑️

EDITED TO ADD 133PM: Meridian has contracted Waste Management to continue dumpster service at Carson Circle and the 12th & 13th Street Townhouses—so you’ll still see WM servicing those specific dumpster locations.
