Automated Trash Collection
Guidelines for Automated Trash Collection
- All trash should be bagged and placed in the automated collection cart issued by the Town of Hudson.
- Trash left beside the cart or in other containers will not be collected.
- Collection cart lids should be closed.
- Collection carts must be set in an accessible location: At least 5 feet from any obstruction such as trees, telephone poles, parked cars, mailboxes, recycling bins and barrels, etc. Approximately 2 feet from the curb and away from low hanging utility lines.
- Trash carts may be placed in groups of two, where applicable.
- Carts that are inaccessible will not be serviced until the following week.
- The cart must be placed so that the handle faces the house.
- All carts must be at the curb by 7:00 am on your trash day.
- No hazardous or building materials, yard waste, brush or recyclables should be placed in trash carts.
- Recycling bins and barrels should be placed on the curb itself so as to not interfere with the trash collection process.
- All recycling bins and barrels must be at the curb by 7:00 am on your trash day.
- Recycling bins and barrels may be up to 32 gallons in capacity, there is no limit to the number of recycling bins or barrels you may use.
Additional Carts & Barcoding
Hudson Residents will receive one cart free as part of the automated collection program. This cart is the property of Pinard Waste Systems and should not be defaced or modified in any way. You are encouraged to remove all the recyclable items out of your regular trash, before purchasing a second container. This will reduce the volume in your trash significantly. The recyclables you remove save the Town of Hudson a substantial amount of money; money which comes out of your taxes! If you feel you need a second cart, the one time cost to the resident is $75.00. Credit card or checks payable to Pinard Waste Systems are the accepted forms of payment.Note: All carts are bar-coded to the residential address to which the cart is placed. When purchasing a second collection cart you will notice that it is a different color lid, than the free cart provided by the Town of Hudson. This cart is also bar coded to the residents in which it is delivered. No residential address may have two free cart colors. If this happens the cart will be scanned and return to the correct address.
Missing or Damaged Carts
If for some reason the cart is destroyed, a new cart will be provided free of charge upon the return of the damaged cart.
Missing carts will be replaced upon notification to Pinard Waste Systems. Damaged carts will be repaired at no cost to the resident. Call Pinard Waste Systems at 1-800-675-7933. Please detail the nature of the needed repair. (Lid, wheel, etc.)
