WM (Waste Management) has postponed and changed the collection schedule for the Fall Bulk Waste Collection. Bulk Waste Collection Week was originally scheduled for October 14 – 18 this year.
The new schedule is:
October 14: Collection of Tires and e-waste (covered device electronics including televisions, computers and printers) ONLY. All tires and e-waste must be at the curb by 7 AM Monday morning (October 14) as they will not be collecting these on residents’ normal collection day but rather working through the entire contract area starting Monday. The collection of tires and e-waste will take place throughout the week, but WM will not return to collect tires or e-waste that was not placed out by Monday morning.
December 9 – 13: Bulk Waste Collection Week. No tires or e-waste. Material will be collected on residents’ normal collection day. In addition to all bulk waste items as allowable in the attached guidelines, this week’s collection includes appliances, although appliance collection may extend into the next week.
