Complete the Community Pride Dumpster Request Form and mail or deliver it to the R-Board Administrative Office with your deposit. Dumpsters are available on a first come/first serve basis. Please call 540-658-5277 with questions.

HOA Dumpster Rental

No hazardous materials or commercial contractor debris, please! The following materials may not be put in the R-Board dumpster:

 

  • Hazardous chemicals including pesticides, paint, or petroleum products
  • Household trash
  • Commercial contractor debris

 

The HOA will be responsible for the container while it is on site. The HOA will be responsible for the disposal of any trash accumulation outside of the R-Board dumpster before, during, and after the container has been removed from the site. In addition, the HOA will be assessed a fee of $32.00 per hour for R-Board staff to close the door and tarp the dumpster before loading it onto the truck. If materials prevent the door from closing R-Board staff will remove them. If debris and trash materials protrude from the top of the dumpster and prevent the tarp to be deployed, R-Board staff will remove them.

Litter Cleanup

The R-Board is concerned with litter in our community, especially the roads to the landfill. Not only is litter ugly, it is harmful to wildlife and causes traffic accidents.

RIVER CLEANUP

Friends of the Rappahannock River Cleanup
Each spring and fall, hundreds of volunteers come together to clean up the banks and tributaries of the beautiful Rappahannock River. The R-Board is proud to be a sponsor for this great effort. For more information visit Friends of the Rappahannock.

 

R-BOARD PARTNERSHIPS

The R-Board has partnered with the Rappahannock Regional Jail to pick up litter along the roadsides in Stafford, Fredericksburg, and the Rappahannock Canal in Fredericksburg.

The  R-Board works with the Rappahannock Area Office on Youth for roadside litter cleanup up also. Youth with certain community service requirements pick up trash on weekends.

Litter Crew
The R-Board employs a litter crew to clean up roadside litter on secondary roads. If you happen to see a spot on public, non-residential, non-commercial roads call 540-658-8680 to request a clean up.

Secure Your Load
Be on the lookout for signs posted on the roads to the Regional Landfill. The signs are reminders to secure your load when you transport trash, brush, and other items in an open bed. It is illegal in Stafford County to carry an unsecured load. The penalty is a maximum $2,500 find and/or 12 months in jail.

Volunteer—Organize a Cleanup
The R-Board provides all the supplies you need to spend a Saturday morning improving your local park. Call 540-658-8680 to arrange for trash bags, safety vests, gloves, litter pickers, and signs for your cleanup. We’ll even pick up the trash bags after you finish and let you know the weight of the collected trash.
