Commercial businesses that contract for four cubic yards or more per week of solid waste collection will need to implement recycling of at least three types of materials, such as paper, glass, plastic, metal and organics.

The cold has arrived and we know the snow season will be here soon as well. The Crossroads Properties maintenance team and our plowing contractor will be working hard to clear the snow from parking lots and sidewalks as needed. The goal is to have the major work completed by 7:00 AM. Of course when the snow comes during the day, all attempts will be made to minimize challenges for human and vehicle mobility. Please drive and walk with caution when the snow plows are active, and feel free to contact us if you notice any dangerous conditions. If you need to leave a vehicle overnight for any reason please contact us so we can provide a location that will least impact the snow removal. Thank you for your cooperation.
