Trash and Recycling collection cancelled for both Tuesday the 9th and Wednesday the 10th

From DPW's Snow Impacts on Waste Collection Services media advisory:

"Due to the difficulty in accessing collection locations because of this historic snowfall, the Department of Public Works, Bureau of Solid Waste announced today that both trash and recycling collections for Tuesday, February 9th and Wednesday, February 10th are CANCELLED. Citizens should hold their trash and recycling until their next regularly scheduled collection day. As always, citizens are urged to properly contain trash in cans with tight-fitting lids to keep rats out and litter in its place.

The Bureau will reassess road conditions on Wednesday to determine the ability to access neighborhoods for waste collections. We ask that Citizens tune in to local news for updates on impacts to trash and recycling collections.

ADDITIONALLY, Citizen Drop Off Centers will be CLOSED to the public until further notice. The Drop Off Centers are being used as hubs of operation for snow removal equipment making them unsafe for residential and pedestrian traffic at this time.

The Bureau of Solid Waste continues to dedicate its drivers and equipment to support the Department of Transportation in its snow removal efforts. All Bureau of Solid Waste employees should continue to report to work at their assigned yards.

We thank Citizens for their patience as we work together to meet the challenge of this unprecedented snow event."
