Trash Collection, Friday, January 9
The City’s Department of Public Works is canceling residential trash, heavy trash and curbside recycling collection on Friday, January 9 due to extreme cold. Residents with regular Friday trash collection will not have trash collected this week. Instead, residents on Friday routes will have a double collection on Friday, January 16. This cancellation applies to all DPW trash routes and all trash routes serviced by contracted trash collectors.
This is a change from the slide schedule announced by the City yesterday.
Sub zero temperatures and dangerously cold wind chills caused the City to cancel trash and recycling collection on Wednesday, January 7, Thursday, January 8, and Friday, January 9. Residents who normally have trash collected on Wednesday,Thursday, or Friday will not have collection this week.
Instead, residents affected by the cancellations will have double collection next week.
Curbside recycling customers will have a double collection on their next scheduled recycling collection day.
Residents who have trash collection on Monday or Tuesday will not be affected by the double collection.
Residents with questions about trash cancellations or next week’s double collection may call the Mayor’s Action Center at (317) 327-4622.
