This year’s Businessperson of the year
winner has an outstanding track record
of management as well as tremendous
contributions to our community. The
employees of this long established
business are tremendously enthusiastic
about the support and leadership of this
businessperson. The quality service
rendered by this business is clearly a
reflection of this person’s support of
staff and leading by example.
Though there have been many
contributions to the community, one of
the most recent was through the Rotary
Club of Oregon City. This individual
led a major effort of cleaning and
painting an Oregon City elementary
school that was in great need of care.
Just one of many employee comments
include: “an excellent business sense
combined with a good heart and
sensitivity toward others in the
community, as well as her employees,
make this company the success it is…” |
Pamela Bloom is
Oregon City's Business person of the

2008 Business of the year!
B&B
Leasing was selected this year for being
the kind of business that doesn’t seek
fanfare or praise for its years of
generosity. They provide a critical
service to all homes and businesses in
Oregon City and beyond. It has been
family owned and operated since 1935,
and has grown from a single truck to a
fleet 40 specialized collection trucks.
Pamela Bloom continues the family legacy
of treating employees as if they were
family. There are so many ways that B&B Leasing gives back to our community
they are too numerous to share.

Most
residential
garbage customers are billed once every other month; each bill covers
a two-month time period. You may make your payments by sending a check
or money order directly to Oregon City Garbage Co., P. O. Box 1840,
Oregon City, OR 97045. |

| Collection
Days |
| Our

| |
| Our
Services |
|
For trash service we provide
a 20-, 35-, 65-, or 95-gallon
roll
carts. Although it will be your responsibility to keep it clean,
we maintain the container (unless it is damaged due to misuse) throughout
your service with us. With weekly or
monthly trash service, customers are provided with two recycle tubs.
If within the city limits, customers are provided a 65 gallon yard
debris roll cart. |
| Please
don't ask our drivers to empty barrels, well cans, or underground
storage containers. |
| |
| Where
to Put Your Container |
| Most
customers place their garbage cans at the curb, although we are happy
to pick up your can at your house for an additional fee. |
| Unless
special arrangements have been made, your collection point should
never require our drivers to enter a garage, building, or navigate
steps. There must not be low hanging obstructions or wires restricting
the driver's access. These restrictions help protect your privacy,
safety, security, and even your pets-and they reduce the risk to our
drivers. A long driveway without clearance, a driveway in poor condition,
or a driveway with an inaccessible passage, means your can must be
placed at the roadside. |
| PLEASE
… roll carts must always be placed at the roadside. |
|
|

|
Please let us know by calling (503) 656-8403 or

| Extra
trash must be tightly bundled, bagged, or boxed, and it may not weigh
over 40 pounds. Place the extra next to your regular can. |

items or additional garbage that
needs to be picked up, please notify our office in advance. You can

Day. If these holidays fall on your normal pick up day, set your garbage
out on the next business day, and we'll be there to pick it up. |

icy or snowy roads make it unsafe for our trucks to be out. In extreme
weather conditions, we may pick up your garbage late in the day-if
the weather improves. Or, if we cannot be there on your regular day,
set your garbage out on the next business day, and weather permitting,
we'll be there to pick it up. |
