DURHAM

Environmental Services
- Thursday, January 12 - Regular Tuesday customers will receive trash and recycling collections
- Friday, January 13 - Regular Wednesday customers will receive trash and recycling collections
- Saturday, January 14 - Regular Thursday customers will receive trash and recycling collections

Customers are asked to leave their carts on their curbs for collection in case the department doesn't finish the entire route because crews will return the next day. Since collections for this week will now focus on trash and recycling, exempt-service customers, as well as yard waste and bulky items collections, are suspended for all customers until next week on their regularly scheduled collection day.

HILLSBOROUGH

Environmental Services
Residents who normally receive garbage service Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday should place their rollout carts at the street by 7 a.m. for collection on Wednesday. Any routes not collected tomorrow should be serviced Thursday. Crews also will collect bulk items this week if time allows, collecting any missed items next week. No leaf collection will be provided, and priority will be given to collecting garbage and bulk items over brush.

Rural curbside recycling route normally scheduled for Monday will receive service on Saturday, Jan. 14. Urban (weekly) curbside recycling for Monday will not be made up. Curbside collection services scheduled for Tuesday - both Urban and Rural routes- will be canceled and not be made up.

WAKE FOREST

Environmental Services
The week's collection schedule will operate one day later than normal and extend into Saturday. So, for example, Monday's route will be collected Tuesday and Friday's route will be collected Saturday.

Yard waste collection of the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday routes will occur throughout the remainder of the week until all routes have been completed. In order to ensure that all neighborhoods are serviced properly, Wake Forest residents are urged to leave their normal yard waste at the curb. Please avoid placing items on or near mailboxes, utility boxes, utility poles or other fixed objects.





Bulk waste pickup that started Tuesday may take several days to complete.
