Curbside recycling collections will be running Friday and Saturday to make up Wednesday, Thursday and Friday routes, as conditions allow. Some side roads may continue to be inaccessible through the thawing and freezing period. If you are on these routes and your recycling remains uncollected, please leave your recycling at the curb (but not in the street) so that our drivers can continue to make up in the early part of next week.

For this collection cycle, curbside recycling collection staff will pick up excess material left outside the carts in rigid containers such as plastic crates, or a laundry basket. Do not use plastic bags. Please make sure that your recycling is not blocked by cars or any other obstruction.

The Town of Hillsborough says that if they are able to do so, citizens on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday routes may place rollout trash carts at the street for collection. Please place the carts where they do not interfere with plowing. Public Works crews will collect garbage as soon as road conditions permit and possibly on Saturday. Collection of bulk items for those routes will be completed next week. Brush and loose leaf collections for Hillsborough residents will resume next week. Orange County will reassess schedules for collecting recyclables once road conditions improve. See the county's website at www.orangecountync.gov for updates on recycling pickup.

Hillsborough town offices will open at 1 p.m. Friday. Opening times for some offices may be affected by the ability of personnel to get to work. Citizens needing to conduct business with the town are encouraged to call or send an email in advance.
