Eagle Ridge borders a state forest and shares this area with dangerous wild animals. In order to protect the animals, condo owners, renters, and guests it is very important that trash be disposed of properly. 

Trash should NOT be left outside of your unit for any period of time.

Eagle Ridge uses a “bear proof” compactor system for trash located between Building A & B. : 

1. The operating instructions are posted at the compactor. (Take the 2nd right after entering the complex. It is on your right)

   1. All trash should be secured in appropriate bags and placed inside our dumpster.

   2. Put your garbage bags as far back in the dumpster as possible to make sure the next person has room.

   3. After the disposal of the trash, please be sure to fully close and secure the sliding doors.  THEN PUSH THE BUTTON.  The compactor will not work unless the button is pushed and garbage is compacted AFTER EACH BAG is deposited.

   4. Do not leave bags outside the dumpster at any time! This attracts bears.

2. Recycling is located on the 3rd level by the fire pond. (Take the 3rd right after entering the complex. Drive until you see the pond on the left and the recycling is on the left)

3. Please review the attached Do’s and Don’ts flyer before using the compactor and recycling bin. In addition to the flyers, please take a moment to view this short video on how the recycling system works. The name of the video is: “How it works – Single Stream Recycling” (https://recycleoftenrecycleright.com/resources/for-apartments-condos/)
