** Was your trash not collected?
Here's why and what to do about it.
------------------------------------------------------------
Groot changes collection procedures to slow the spread of COVID-19

As previously announced, Groot, the Village of Oswego's contracted waste hauler, has made changes to the way its waste haulers will be collecting trash to slow the spread of COVID-19 in our community and among its workers. Here's a reminder of what you need to know:



** If you use your own trash can:
------------------------------------------------------------
You must bag your trash, tie the bags, and put them in the trash can. In many cases, haulers collecting trash cans must touch the can in order to toss the garbage into the truck. If a hauler sees loose garbage in your trash can, they will not touch the can.



**
If you use a Groot-issued toter cart:
------------------------------------------------------------
Nothing has changed. Place your trash in your toter cart as usual. Haulers will collect your trash using the mechanical arm on the garbage truck, as usual.


**

------------------------------------------------------------


** No bulk items or trash/recycling outside the can
------------------------------------------------------------
Until further notice, waste haulers will not collect bulk items, electronics, construction debris, or appliances, and they will not collect any trash left outside of a can or cart.


This includes items for recycling. Haulers will not collect any recycling that is left outside of your recycling cart.

Haulers will not return to collect any trash that is missed or not put at the curb on time.


** Please share!
