🚛 Garbage Collection Update
We’re happy to share that normal garbage pickup will resume tomorrow, and we will also be collecting any missed stops from Tuesday’s route.

Our garbage truck is still undergoing repairs, but we’re making it work thanks to the generous support of the City of Wauchula, who has allowed us to borrow both a garbage truck and a grapple truck.

🙏 A big thank you to Wauchula for stepping up and helping keep Bowling Green clean!

We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding. 💚

🚛 Garbage Collection Update 🛠️

We want to inform our residents that the garbage truck experienced unexpected mechanical issues today and is currently out of service. Some areas were picked up before the breakdown occurred, but not all routes were completed.

Our team has been working diligently to get the truck repaired, but unfortunately, it was not able to be fixed today. We will provide an update as soon as we have more information.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to resolve the issue.
