During the winter months, there are times when weather conditions are such that garbage cannot be safely collected. Even when the roads appear safe, there are many secondary roads that are not passable for collection trucks.
We consider the safety of our employees and the general public to be the primary consideration when evaluating whether to provide solid waste collection services during a potentially hazardous weather/storm event. Services may be delayed or canceled.
Some street or alley projects may cause delays in trash, recycling or brush and bulky collection while others street or alley projects require collection locations to be relocated. Visit the Current Street Projects page to see if you're location is affected.
There are currently no City Holiday related service delays.
