New Trash and Recycling Schedule Starts July 14

Sunday July 12, 2009

The city's much debated new once-per-week trash collection schedule starts July 14. Recyclables also will be collected weekly, again, starting tomorrow.

Remember, your trash must be in a trash can - you can get fined for leaving just a bag out. Recyclable materials will be collected in the same place as your trash (so if your trash is picked up in a rear alley, that's where your recyclables now will be collected too - this is a change). Also, recyclables can be put out in any container.

The city has a nifty little device on its Web site for residents to determine their trash and recycling days. Enter your address in the box on the upper right hand corner, then click the "Locate" button. Your new trash and recycling schedule will appear in the middle of the right-hand column.
