This garbage enclosure construction project involved demolishing the existing enclosure and building a new fenced structure to contain and visually screen garbage and recycling containers.

We set new posts in concrete, installed double-sided fence boards, and selected and applied a stain that complements the surrounding landscape. The enclosure sits beside a paved parking area, with established trees, hedges, and the lake beyond.
