Carts collected, cleaned & returned | 2024
Collect, Clean, & Return Shopping Carts
Our Save-A-Cart program collects, cleans and returns carts that have been clearly abandoned. If we suspect that a cart is still being used by someone we will tag that cart with an easily identifiable placard that will inform that person using the cart to collect their belongings within 48 hours or it will collected and the content inside disposed of. In the instance that a cart is located on private property, we will contact the property owner before entering the property.
