Trash Collection & Bulk Pickup

Trash Pickup

Kingsview-Ridge Trash Collection:

Due to skyrocketing costs, the Kingsview-Ridge Board of Directors have contracted with Ecology Refuse Services for trash collection starting Wednesday, February 2, 2022. The change in provider will affect the days for trash collection.

Trash will now be collected on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
*Recycling will continue to be collected on Wednesdays by Montgomery County.

NOTE: If trash collection falls on a holiday (New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, or any other holiday the refuse transfer station is closed), collection will be on the next SCHEDULED collection day.

Proper disposal of waste is an important part of keeping our community clean and beautiful. Listed below are helpful reminders regarding trash and recycling:

  1. Trash and recycling containers must be stored out of public view except on collection days.
  2. Hard plastic or metal trash bins with lids that secure or heavy duty “construction style” plastic bags that are tightly secured are the only approved containers for use. White kitchen style trash bags are expressly prohibited for placement at the curb.
  3. Place trash out for collection the evening prior to trash collection day or before 7:00 a.m. the day of collection.

Note: Please do not leave your trash in those white kitchen bags. The animals get into those and it makes a big mess. Thank you for your cooperation.

Bulk Pickup

Our Waste Management company, Ecology Services Companies, will do bulk pickup. For bulk pickup, the individual homeowners need to call Ecology at 301-362-6700 to schedule a bulk pick-up and the homeowner will be charged directly.

Let us work together to keep our community beautiful!

Halloween Guidelines during COVID-19 Pandemic

County officials are advising against traditional door-to-door trick-or-treating because of the “challenge of maintaining proper physical distancing on porches and at front doors.” They are also advising against participating in activities where food is shared, such as “trunk-or-treating”—which involves children going car-to-car for treats instead of door-to-door.

Any questions, please see the county guidelines or call 311.

COVID Message and CDC Guidelines

In COVID

Dear Residents,

The Board of Directors (Board) for the Kingsview Ridge Community Association (Association), in consultation with Vanguard Management, the association’s attorney, insurance provider, and other business partners, has been planning for contingencies that may arise in the community as a result of the spread of COVID-19.

Below is a brief summary of adjustments made to the Association’s operations until further notice. These plans have been made in response to CDC recommendations and the Stay Home Order issued by Maryland State Governor Larry Hogan on March 30, 2020. All are subject to change based on CDC guidance, advice from our professional partners, and mandates from the State and Federal governments.

Essential Services. As of 5:00 PM on Monday, March 23, 2020, Governor Hogan has mandated that all non-essential business close. Essential community services that will continue include grounds maintenance, trash
removal, and general community maintenance.

Meetings. The Association has cancelled or postponed any nonessential meetings until further notice.

Management. Vanguard Management remains steadfast in our commitment to quality customer service. Although our physical offices are closed, we have implemented a business plan to allow us to minimize disruptions to normal
operations and minimize the impact on the residents of Kingsview Ridge. Your Community Management team will continue to be available, during normal business hours, by phone or email. At this time, we are not able to conduct
our regularly scheduled inspections of the common elements, so please forward any concerns related to the Association’s common areas to Management at nkeen@vanguardmgt.com.

Social distancing. The Association urges all homeowners to monitor the social distancing recommendations and mandates imposed by local, state and Federal authorities. The latest COVID-19 response information for the State of
Maryland can be found by visiting https://governor.maryland.gov/coronavirus/.

Reasonable Accommodations. The Association is prepared, as appropriate, to reasonably accommodate owners who may be impacted by the current climate by postponing violation hearings, extending deadlines on Architectural
Applications, or granting payment extensions, if appropriate. If you have been adversely impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak and feel that you may need a reasonable accommodation, please email your request to nkeen@vanguardmgt.com or all other requests.

The Association has not made any of the decisions mentioned above lightly. These actions are being taken to promote the health and welfare of the residents of this community. Our continuing goal is to keep residents informed of all relevant developments and how they affect Association operations.

It is also incumbent upon residents to take this situation seriously and do their part to minimize the spread of the virus.

The Association highly encourages all residents to review CDC guidelines and stay informed on updates from the CDC, state and local governments, and the World Health Organization.

For the Board of Directors,
Kingsview Ridge Community Association

Nancy Keen, CMCA ®

Pets
Pet owners are reminded that they should walk their pets AWAY from neighbors’ homes, playground areas and high traffic areas. Deposits of “poop” around the common areas and on neighbor’s property has become a significant nuisance. PETS SHOULD BE ON A LEASH WHEN ON KINGSVIEW RIDGE PROPERTY. IT’S NOT ONLY AN ASSOCIATION RULE, BUT COUNTY LAW! The Association covenants say that pets should not be a source of annoyance or nuisance to the neighborhood or other members. Pet owners should always “pick-up” after their pet.

Let’s face it, this is not only the law, but a sign of a considerate pet owner/neighbor. Please be aware that, failure to follow the proper rules concerning your pet could result in a monetary fine being imposed or action being taken to remove the pet from the community! See more info here.
