The community of Lorton Valley is currently served by Republic Services for trash and recycling removal and disposal. As with all community service agreements, Lorton Valley HOA  negotiates and enters into a community wide contractual agreement with local trash removal companies every three(3) years. A portion of each homes' monthly HOA fees goes to fund normally scheduled trash removal and recycling. Any individual trash removal needs; especially removal of bulk items, such as appliances, furniture, etc., must be arranged and paid by the individual resident.

 

Pickup times for trash and recycling are as follows:

 

Every Tuesday (except Holidays) - Trash and Recycling 

Every Wednesday - Yard waste, tree cuttings, trimmed bushes, dead flowers/plants, etc. starts First Wednesday in March. Place all yard waste in paper bags or reusable container marked "Yard Waste".  No plastic bags!

Every Friday (except Holidays)  Regular Trash. 

Bulk Items - As arranged by resident  by email at HOA.NOVA@republicservices.com (also used to order new wheeled containers and bins by resident)

 

Bulk Item email request must include Name, cell number, full address and zip code and HOA name. List the bulk item (chair, table, sofa, washer, dryer, grill) as well as a photo. If bulk item is beyond allowed parameters (mattress, box springs of all sizes), there may be a price charge (photo is important).  

 

For trash and/or recycling or yard-waste pick-up days residents may place their trash/recycling bins on the street side curb no earlier than the evening or night before pickup date. Containers must be returned to their storage place no later than pick-up day evening. Bins must be stored in the garage or rear of the home out of sight from the street. 

 

All bins placed curbside for pick-up must be closed and/or items secured so as to not blow away during high winds. Nothing is more detrimental to the community than the appearance of blown trash skittering throughout the community.
