Due to an operational delay, bulk collection for Friday route customers will be collected tomorrow, June 23rd, rather than today.

Trash and recycling collection will still occur as scheduled tomorrow.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience. If you have bulk items set out for collection, please leave them at the curb for pickup tomorrow.

We wanted to share a quick update about trash collection this week.

We've received a higher-than-normal number of reports of missed trash pickup. Waste Connections has told us they experienced delays this week and are working to get caught up. They expect to complete all missed collections by the end of today or tomorrow at the latest.

If your trash cart was at the curb by 6 AM on your scheduled pickup day and has not been emptied, please leave it out so drivers can collect it as they work through the remaining stops.

To report a missed pickup, please email [email protected] with your address and a brief description of the issue.

Thank you for your patience while Waste Connections works to get caught up, and we'll continue to stay in contact with them until service is back on track.
