Put a lid on it! Please remember to keep your trash contained. It's important that trash be kept in sealed containers and upright while at the curb. Please compact your trash as much as possible (making it heavier and less likely to blow over), place it in bags, and put the bags into tightly covered cans before putting out at the curb.
