Solid Waste Pickup

The cutback of solid waste pickup has gone into effect. If your regular pickup day for your regular household trash pickup (Herbie the Curbie) has been Monday through Thursday, it will remain the same, and that is still going to be weekly -- at present. Those who had a Friday pickup are supposed to have been notified of their new scheduled day by the City of Atlanta Public Works Department. (The City doesn't work on Fridays any more.) Good luck.

Recycling pickup has been cut back to every other week, as has yard-waste pickup.

Please be advised: recycling pickup for Memorial Park will be THIS WEEK, and every other week hereafter. If your trash pickup is tomorrow (Wednesday) your recycling will be picked up tomorrow. If your trash pickup is Thursday, recycling will be picked up Thursday.

Yard waste pickup will be NEXT WEEK, and every other week thereafter.


Disclaimer: I am passing along the information that has been received from those who seem to be in a position to know. They may also be misinformed. We try our best.

Thankyou for that info...it has been over month that our bins (which have been multiplying) have been on the street (Woodward and Oldfield) waiting for p/u. There should have been 2 p/u's by now according to the web (new) info from the city. Very frustrating, so thanks...
