Home Winterization Tips

With winter weather moving into our area later this week, please take time now to prepare for freezing temperatures. The latest forecasts show the potential for a hard freeze (temperatures below 24 degrees for more than two hours). This type of weather can put your water pipes—and ultimately your home—at risk. A little preparation now can help prevent costly repairs later.

Please take a few minutes to review our freeze preparation guide and prepare your home to help reduce the chance of broken pipes and water damage. The guide includes:

  • Key steps to protect pipes inside and outside the home
  • What to do with faucets, irrigation systems, and exposed plumbing
  • Tips to follow before temperatures drop and during a freeze

Best Trash Expresses Sympathy and Provides Essential Storm Debris Collection Information

Best Trash extends sympathy for all of those affected by the storm. We understand that this is a catastrophic event.

It is encouraged to contact your Precinct or County to see when storm debris collection will happen.

Please note that storm debris is not part of the normal heavy trash collection for Best Trash. Our main focus will be to collect household trash.

Please ensure that the storm debris is separate from your regular trash to avoid any confusion.
