Tape a note to the bin saying "damaged" and then put it standing upright on your next trash day for the haulers to take away.

7. Does Syracuse Haulers provide me with a trash can(s)?

You can provide your own trash can or rent from Syracuse Haulers.  If you provide your own trash can it can go up to 95 gallons.  Syracuse Haulers will rent you a 65 or 95 gallon can on wheels. Rental of these carts is handled directly between you and Syracuse Haulers.

8. How do I put my trash/recyclables for disposals?

You may put your trash out in plastic bags and/or garbage cans. The plastic bags must not exceed the 32-gallon size or trash cans up to 95 gallons. The weight limit for each trash container is 50 pounds. All trash must be bagged whether in cans or not. There is a limit of eight (8)-32-gallon bags of trash for each collection day. There is no limit to the number of recycle items you can put out. If you are going to have an unusually large amount of trash and/or recyclables contact Syracuse Haulers ahead of the pick-up day. 

9. How do I put out my yard waste for disposal?

ALL YARD WASTE MUST BE CONTAINED AND/OR BUNDLED. LOOSE PILES OF YARD WASTE WILL NOT BE PICKED UP. There is no limit on the amount of brush you may put out. If you are planning on having a lot to dispose of on a pick-up day please give Syracuse Haulers a ‘heads up’. The weight limit for brush/yard waste is 50 pounds per container. Please do not use plastic bags to hold your yard waste. Use either the biodegradable paper bags and/or rigid containers (even an old trash can is acceptable. Make sure the lid is off so that the hauler knows it is brush and not trash). Sticks/branches must either be in a rigid container or bundled with string or hemp twine. No wire please. In addition, any sticks/branches must not exceed five (5) feet in length or three (3) inches in diameter. Anything bigger requires a fee for pick-up. In this situation, please contact Syracuse Haulers to find out the charge and to arrange a pick-up date. Another option for disposing of your branches and trunk pieces is to take them to the Town of Manlius Highway Department where, from 7am to 3pm, Monday through Friday, there is an area available to dump these items at no charge. Please contact the Town of Manlius Highway Department at 315-656-3090 for more information (absolutely no landscapers are allowed to dump at the Town of Manlius Highway Garage.)

10. By what time of day am I required to have my trash/brush out for collection?

Your trash/recyclables and/or brush need to be out by 6 am on your collection day, or preferably the night before. Syracuse Haulers can come anywhere from 6:00am to 5:00 pm on the day of your pick-up. There may be two different trucks that pick up the trash and recyclables (one for trash and perhaps a different truck for recyclables). Please remember that if your trash and/or yard waste is put out after the hauler has been through your area you will have to wait for your next pick-up day. It is very important to have your trash/yardwaste out no later than 6 am of your pick-up day. Quick Links.

11. Is there any kind of a limit to how much trash, recyclables and brush I can put out for a pick-up day?

There is currently an eight 32-gallon bag limit on the number of trash bags that may be put out on any particular pick-up day. Regarding the recyclables and brush, there is no actual limit. However if you are planning on having an unusually large amount of either, please contact Syracuse Haulers before your pick-up day to give them a heads up. Remember: 50 pound limit for each trash bag/container and a 50 pound limit for each yard waste container.

12. What do I do when I have a household item to dispose of that does not fall into the category of "normal household trash"?

There is no official large- item- pick-up day in the Town of Manlius (for residences located outside of a village). For a fee, Syracuse Haulers and OCRRA can help you dispose of most of these items. Please contact either for details and fees. FYI: any item(s) you want to dispose of through OCCRA must be transported to them. They do not pick up items.
If you would like to have Syracuse Haulers come to your residence to cart something away call them, tell them what you have to dispose of and they will tell you the cost and when they will be there to pick it up.
