🗑️ Sorting at the Cottage
Two bins are located beneath the counter:
♻️ Recyclables
🗑️ Household Waste
A sorting guide is posted on the refrigerator. Please follow it.
The cottage owners typically take waste home in sealed containers. If you generate a lot of garbage, you may use the Sprucedale Dump.
🐻 Wildlife Warning
Raccoons, opossums, foxes, and bears inhabit this area.
- Garbage may be stored in the shed only, in undamaged bags
- Meat, fish, and grease must remain frozen until disposal to avoid attracting wildlife

The punch card hangs on the "Moose" key rack near the kitchen. Guests are welcome to use up to 2 bags per week.
💳 Please keep it safe — do not lose the card!
🛍️ Bags must be clear or translucent, maximum 30" × 36". Black, dark, tinted, or white bags are not accepted.
