During the current winter weather event, all trash and recycling will be picked up together and processed as general refuse until conditions improve. Services can be expected to run late and if not completed, will be resumed the following weekday morning as conditions permit.
Inaccessible roads with steep and/or slick hills may not get serviced until trucks can safely travel the roads. Please be patient as employees are working long hours. Customers will get serviced as quickly as it is safe to do so.
