Snowfall during prime trash picking hours is the worst!
We will be pushing dauphin county routes back to an 8am start to give the townships a chance to work on the back roads and dumpster customers a chance to plow and treat driveways.
Routes in Washington, Upper Mahanoy, Eldred, Upper Mahantango, and Jordan Townships will be delayed to later in the week as we are able. We are going to do our best to work these areas into the rest of the week after our daily routes in hopes that the roads will be cleared and trash accessible. If we are able, we may start on certain sections it later today.
In the snow our trucks are more like trash filled bobsleds then they are garbage trucks, even with chains on. We’ll do our best to get to all tuesday customers, but we will not jeopardize the well-being of our drivers or equipment on unplowed/untreated roads or driveways.
