Both Thursday and Friday trash/recycling routes will run on Wednesday Thanksgiving week. All other days are on normal schedule. Crews will not have time to come back for missed pickups so have your carts out before 7:00 AM. They also expect to be working late so leave the carts at the curb if they are not emptied at the normal time. The Transfer Station is closed Thursday but open Friday from 7-4. Please help spread the word and give us something to be thankful for. Sign up to be notified of future schedule changes at www.cityofcape.org/pwalerts
