As Prince William County has moved into Phase 1 of reopening, LRPRA has opened up Tennis/Pickleball Courts and the Volleyball Pit, effective today.
Playgrounds other than Fantasy and half-court basketball courts are already open. Also open is the Boat Ramp on Forest Hill Road.
This will involve social distancing and other safety actions from the CDC. Refer to the LRPRA Reopening Plan for details.

The LRPRA Reopening Plan is a phased reopening of our community that takes federal, state, and county reopening plans into account. This plan contains three phases. The status of LRPRA amenities, events and services will be affected by each phase. The specific timeline of each phase is not known at this time and this plan is subject to change as guidelines and protocols are decided.

Trash Service Update:

Charlie & Son has temporarily restricted yard waste bags and cans to a maximum of 2 per pickup until further notice. Please refer to their linked COVID-19 Yard Waste Notice for details.

Recreational Courts Update: Tennis Court entrances (gates) have been locked and full Basketball Court hoops secured, closing them from resident use until further notice.

Key requests for the Boat Ramp and Tennis Courts are suspended until the Administration Office re-opens to the public.

Community Center Update:

Usage of Canterbury Woods and Tall Oaks Community Center is now suspended until June 10th in accordance with Governor Northam's stay at home order.

Charlie & Sons Trash Service Updates:

Charlie & Son will be suspending bulk pick up until further notice. As Prince William County Landfill has temporarily suspended bulk drop off, we are requesting all residents to hold bulk items within your home.

We are asking that all residents be conscious of their trash disposal practices and bulk pickup requests. Charlie & Son Trash Service is working diligently to continue their duties. The safety of their customers, community and staff are very important. All information for trash and recycling protocols can be found on the Trash Service page under Residents.

Please note the following as some of those important ways you can follow the trash and recycling pickup rules:
• All garbage bags MUST be placed in a container with a lid. No bags should be left out on the ground.
• A 35 lb. weight limit should not be exceeded within any bags or containers.
• Restrict deliveries to household refuse only, and minimize deliveries of brush, yard debris and bulky waste.

All information for Prince William County Landfill procedures can be found on the Prince William County Government website.
