Sometimes I think you’d have to be living under a rock not to know what is going on in City Hall, then I remember, not everyone is as obsessed with our local media as elected officials are.
So, in case you missed it, THE GARBAGE CANS ARE COMING!! THE GARBAGE CANS ARE COMING!!!
Ok – District 2 residents, you can pretty much assume you won’t be getting your garbage cans until after August 15th, since they traditionally wait until after the infamous “moving days” downtown before they deliver them. It’s just helps cut down on the confusion.
IMPORTANT – Even if you do get your cart early, they won’t start using them until the week of September 10th.
Each cart will come with the new edition of the Cart Chronicle, a booklet that gives residents complete information on the new program, including instructions on how to recycle their old trash cans once automated collection begins on September 10th.
Each household will receive a cart in one of three sizes: 35, 65 or 95-gallons. Households can exchange their cart for a different size without charge, beginning 90 days after the program has started. This will give users a chance to better assess their needed cart size, based on experience with the automated collection system.
