Association-Sponsored Trash Service:  The Association sponsors trash service for subdivisions successfully completing the trash petition/ballot process.  If your subdivision has procured Association-sponsored trash service, consult the Trash Service Contract Schedule for pick-up information.  LRPRA currently has 33 subdivisions and over 3100 homes participating in Association-sponsored trash service.  (If your street is not listed on the trash schedule then your subdivision does not have Association-sponsored trash service, and you will need to contact a local vendor to procure trash service for your property. If you are interested in procuring Association-sponsored trash service for your subdivision, please see below.)

Beginning September 1, 2004, Association-sponsored trash service will offer bulk pickup.  You MUST call and give 24 hours notice in advance to the service provider, Charlie and Sons at 703.670.9652 to schedule bulk pickup PRIOR TO placing items on the curb for pickup.  See Charlie and Son Rules and Regulations for Association-Sponsored Trash Service. 

Holidays/Closings for Charlie and Son Trash Service:  Charlie and Son Trash Service will be closed for three holidays a year as follows: Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Years Day. Trash pickup, as well as recycle pickup, will be made on the next scheduled trash collection day after the holiday.

Trash Petition/Ballot Process:  A homeowner wishing to obtain Association-sponsored trash service for his/her subdivision should contact the Association office at 703.491.2154 ext. 102 in January.  Each March, the Association sends trash petition ballots to select subdivisions based on homeowner and covenants staff input.  When a simple majority (50% plus 1) of ballots are returned from subdivision owners voting in favor of Association-sponsored trash service, the subdivision's request for Association-sponsored trash service will be forwarded to the Board of Directors for approval.  (Trash Petition Ballot Results for FY09 mailed in March 2008) Once approved, the cost for Association trash service is billed with the annual Association assessment with service commencing September 1st, which is the begining of the next fiscal year.
