Vehicle break-ins - Mill Springs Estates!

Last night 2 Mill Springs resident’s vehicles were broken into on Mill Springs Drive and Mill Springs Court. Items were taken out of these vehicles; both filed police reports.

Please be vigilant of any suspicious activity you may see. Feel free to contact me as well: 205-960-8357. Please remember to lock your doors if you park your vehicle outside. Also, please be sure the doors are locked to your home as well. We live in a nice area, however, crime has no boundaries.

Trick or Treat for Troops

See the message below from Charon Rivers about Trick or Treat for Troops:

"I would love for our neighbors to participate in helping our deployed troops again this Halloween. They love candy and I will be sending it in my Christmas boxes. I plan on sending 300 boxes so I will need lots of candy. I will place a bag on each mailbox on Thursday or Friday. Please place any unwanted candy in it and put the bag on your front porch. I will come by sometime Sunday and pick it up. Thanks for your help Charon Rivers - 733 Mill Springs Lane"

Waste Services of Alabama (Santek) personnel will begin delivering your new carts September 14th. You will receive a gray cart for household trash and a blue cart for recyclables.  Both carts will be 96 gallon carts.  We have approximately 25,000 residents in Hoover who will receive new carts by the end of the month.  Please be patient with us during this transition period. 

PLEASE DO NOT USE YOUR NEW CARTS UNTIL OCTOBER 1ST

After October 1st, our outgoing vendor - Republic Services, will collect one empty trash cart and one empty recycle cart per household. You may leave your old carts on the curb for pick-up after October 1st. Should you have questions concerning smaller recycle carts, please call Waste Services of Alabama (Santek) after October 1st at 205-631-1313 and they will exchange your large recycle cart for a smaller one upon request.   You may also contact the City of Hoover Public Works Department with questions at 205-444-7543.
