Ten Ways to Be a Good Neighbor at RVR
Same Day, Single Provider Residential Trash and Recycling Comes to RVR
Community members asked us to pursue same day, single provider trash and recycling services for our community in order to eliminate redundant truck traffic and reduce the potential impacts on wildlife caused by having trash receptacles on our streets five days per week. A bid process was conducted and the successful bidder was Mountain Refuse, Inc. (MRI) who offered the overall best package of service, price, quality, and convenience. Starting March 31st, MRI will collect trash and recycling for all homes at River Valley Ranch.
For more specific information regarding trash collection and recycling, click HERE to visit the Trash and Recycling page of this website.
