All trash and recycling containers to get address labels

The Bowling Green Public Works Department has contracted with GIS Landmark to place address labels on all refuse and recycling containers that are picked up by the city. This work will begin in Wards 1 and 2 on June 13. Residents are asked to help in this effort by placing containers – full or empty – at the curb so that the GIS Landmark crews can affix the label beginning with collection on June 13 and continue to do so until a label has been placed on all containers.

The address label is a black sticker with orange letters approximately 3 inches by 7 inches. Each sticker will associate a particular container with the address it is registered to. This work is being done to ensure proper tracking of containers so individual properties are not assessed an incorrect amount for the refuse/recycling fee. Questions about this work may be directed to the Public Works Department at 419-354-6227.
