Organizers ask that you remain in your vehicle during the collection process. They will access your vehicle or trunk to retrieve the items. The announcement states that you should be prepared to leave containers, boxes and bags, so don’t put the materials in any container you aren’t willing to leave behind.
It is recommended that you arrive early. No commercial vehicles are allowed and no waste from business will be accepted. There is a limit of 10 gallons of paint.
