Trash and Recycling
Starting January 1, 2012 the Town of Camillus will have a new vender for trash removal. Town put the contract out for bid and Dependable Disposal had the lowest bid. Good news is that the price will be decreasing from $178 to $129. You will be able to rent large garbage bins for $1 a month, if anything happens to them they will be replaced by the company. The Bad news is we will be switching to a four day a week pick up schedule. If your pick up day is currently Friday, you will be moved to another day which will be determined in the near future.
Interesting Facts
This year there are four unusual dates: 1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, and 11/11/11. But that’s not all: If you take the last two digits of the year you were born and the age you will be this year, the result will add up to 111 for everyone! Also this year, October had 5 Mondays, 5 Sundays and 5 Saturdays, this only happens once every 823 years!
