Your new trash can accommodate as much volume as 2 to 3 standard-sized trash cans. We expect these cans to be sufficient for your household needs. If you have a one-time overflow of trash, please hold it until your next regular collection day or drop it off at the Ocean County Landfill. If you continue to have an overflow of trash or recycling, a second can should be purchased.
