City trash routes will continue normally through the week
Posted Feb11, 2008 at 06:17 PM
Trash collection in a few parts of Roanoke was delayed today because a few streets and about 15 alleys were blocked by downed trees and wires. The city is asking residents who have Monday collection to leave their Big Blue containers, recycling and bulk and brush at the curb; solid waste collection crews will recheck those streets on Tuesday.
Routes for the rest of the week will be collected on schedule.
Wednesday and Thursday routes include many alleys that are believed to be blocked. Solid waste crews will check Tuesday and report alley locations in need of tree clearing so that alley trash service can occur. Solid waste management crews will continue to collect brush from the storm a pickup-truck load at a time to provide service to as many as neighborhoods possible.
