5/26/20 YARD WASTE COLLECTION DONE

DPW has been seeing piles of yard waste still at the curb. Green Bay residents are reminded that yard waste placed to the curb after Mother's Day (May 10, 2020) will not be collected by the CIty. The curbside collection program ended on Friday, May 15.

Residents must now dispose of their yard waste at 1 of the 2 Green Bay yard waste facilities for the remainder of the summer. If you have neighbors with yard waste still at the curb, please advise them. If residents don't remove yard waste from the curb, then DPW will be forced to remove it and invoice for the service. The CIty prefers not to do that.

Have a safe and enjoyable summer.

TRASH/RECYCLING COLLECTION Reminder

Green Bay-DPW has been receiving a lot of resident complaints, stating that we missed collection of their tipper carts. A limited number of the concerns were valid. But the majority of them were the result of misunderstanding the City's solid waste collection process.

DPW would like to take this opportunity to remind Green Bay residents of the rules and expectations for trash and recycling collection. Following are some common points to remember on your collection day:

1) To guarantee 100% collection, carts must be to the curb by 6:00 a.m. on your collection day...year-round. If your cart is typically emptied at 8:00 a.m., don't assume you can set it out at 7:30 a.m. and assume it will be emptied. It can be collected anytime. Late set-outs are a common source of complaints received from residents.

2) DPW does not guarantee a specific time of collection for any property. If for example a house typically has the cart emptied at 8:15 a.m., that doesn't mean it won't be emptied at at (say) 12:45 p.m. So please don't call right away if your route truck does not arrive at your expected time. Allow your driver time to do their job.

3) Collection can be temporarily halted or delayed due to vehicle breakdowns, fill-in drivers, new driver training, special assignments, driver re-assignments, etc. But DPW will always collect your carts on your collection day by 3:00 p.m.

3) More than 1 trash and 1 recycling truck may be in your neighborhood due to driver training, drivers helping out after a breakdown, or other reasons. So please don't panic if you see your neighbor's cart get tipped and yours not get tipped. DPW currently has numerous new drivers, and many routes have multiple trucks in them.

4) Trash and recycling trucks look the same. So for example if you see a truck that doesn't collect your recycling, it may be because it is a trash collection truck.

Please note these items and share them with friends and family. If you have questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact DPW by phone or through the City website. DPW does not regularly read or respond to Facebook questions.

Happy spring time!
