    Trash removal is a necessity to ensure a clean environment and safety for both people and animals. Collection of solid waste materials and recyclable items plays a vital role in the cleanliness and sustainability of our community in Colorado Springs. We feel it is our responsibility to help ensure clean, sanitary neighborhoods, and to conserve resources.

    You may not think about how the disposal of your trash impacts your life once your garbage is on the curb ready for pickup.  But at Infinite Disposal, it is at the forefront of our minds every day.  Did you know that improperly disposed garbage can cause harmful gases to mix with the air and can cause widespread breathing problems? Not to mention, a foul-smelling odor that may cause nausea for people in the vicinity of rotting garbage.  Solid materials that rot in, or near, water may contribute to water-borne diseases like cholera, diarrhea, abdominal discomforts, among others.  These are all reasons why working with a company that knows what they’re doing is essential.

    Picking up your waste on a regular basis will ensure the safety of your neighborhood.  For example, sharp objects, such as broken glass and rusty metals, could cause severe injuries and infections .  Pieces of plastic that are not appropriately disposed of may end up harming local pets and wildlife.  There are also environmental contaminants that can spread serious illness and disease if not disposed of in the right way.  All in all, Infinite Disposal is a company of environmental protection heroes and we hope you take advantage of having us around!

    When we recycle, used materials are converted into new products, reducing the need to consume natural resources. If used materials are not recycled, new products are made by extracting fresh, raw materials from the earth, through mining and forestry.  Recycling helps conserve important raw materials and protects natural habitats for the future.  Recycling drastically reduces the need for extracting (mining, quarrying, and logging), refining, and processing raw materials.  All of these create substantial air and water pollution.  Another huge environmental benefit of recycling is it saves energy by reducing greenhouse gas emissions.  This is major when it comes to tackling climate change.

    We are happy to provide you with large 96-gallon recycling bins that will be picked up every other week and disposed of properly.  If you have questions about what should and should not be recycled, please give us a call and we will be happy to give you all the specific information you need to make informed choices.
