City of Reading – Litter Program


·
The litter containers will have a capacity of 35 gallons and will be emptied a minimum of once per week.

· Quantities are limited, therefore containers will be placed in the order that requests are received.

· Residents participating in this program will be asked to help in the monitoring of illegal dumping and also ensure that containers are emptied frequently enough to eliminate overflowing.

· Two containers will be placed in most blocks to allow the greatest flexibility for residents to place their litter.

· Containers were placed in target areas of the City in June of 1999 and we are now looking to expand this program with additional containers being placed in your neighborhood. This program will continue to be evaluated during the winter and spring months with possible relocation or increase in service depending on the use of such containers.

· If you agree to participate in this program, we will be in contact with you after receipt of your application.Your input in this important program is crucial in ensuring the success of this program, CITY WIDE.
