Beginning at 6:30 a.m. on Monday August 5, 2024 residents within the downtown transferring days space can place trash and recycling assortment carts out for every day pickup.

The Streets Division can have crews patrolling the move-out space emptying assortment carts starting on August 5 as staffing and time permits.

The plan is for crews to complete their every day assignments, and when time permits, they’ll carry out further collections within the transfer out space.  

As extra carts and objects are positioned out for pickup, extra workers might be reassigned from their regular duties to help with assortment duties.

The purpose is to offer every day assortment alternatives throughout workdays within the transferring days space beginning on Monday, August 5 and ending on Friday, August 23.

In case you reside within the downtown transferring days space, and particularly if you’re transferring out of your house within the days forward, use this chance to fill and re-fill your assortment carts many times.

Utilizing carts appropriately and infrequently makes Streets Division collections throughout the August transfer out quicker and safer for everybody.
