  • Residents are asked to wait to place their carts out for service until 6 a.m. Wednesday morning to allow for more efficient snow-clearing operations overnight.
  • Please place residential carts in front of snow berms on plowed streets or at the end of cleared driveways at the curb to facilitate access. Carts placed on or behind snow berms will not be serviced due to accessibility issues.
