April 3, 2020
Dear Wickliffe Residents:
Kimble Recycling & Disposal, Inc. remains committed to the safe & sanitary condition of your community and the safety and health of our employees.
Because of the COVID-19-related governmental declarations of emergency and regulations, and due to the stay at home order and potential COVID-19 related labor shortages, we must adjust routes & schedules to collect the large increase in residential waste volumes. We are taking precautionary steps and asking our customers to make the necessary changes, to allow us to focus on the essential business of solid waste collections. We are asking for the cooperation of our customers to minimize the disruptions to essential services.
Effective, Monday April 13, 2020 to protect our workers and avoid service disruptions, we are asking for your help by implementing the following changes.
Solid Waste: Please fit all materials into the Kimble provided waste cart leaving no materials to be loaded by hand. Collection will occur as usual.
Recycling: Please fit all recycle items in the Kimble provided recycle cart, leaving no materials to be collected by hand. Include only clean paper, cardboard, metal cans and #1 and #2 plastic containers and jugs. (See website at www.kimblecompanies.com for acceptable recyclable items.) Collection will occur as usual.
Bulk items: Please temporarily hold bulk items that require hand loading, such as sofas, mattresses, appliances, toilets and other bulky items. Items that can be broken or disassembled and placed in the Kimble waste cart, will be collected.
Yard Waste: Separate curbside yard waste collection will be temporarily suspended. Please place no yard waste on the ground for hand collection, yard waste fits into the Kimble waste cart will be collected. Alternatively, Kimble will be providing large roll off containers at a municipal location to accept clean yard waste.
We are continually monitoring the COVID-19 situation and developing plans that can be implemented to continue to respond to this public health emergency. These measures will be implemented as needed to protect the health and safety of our employees, customers and communities we serve.
We thank you for your cooperation and patience as we work through these difficult times together.
Sincerely,

IMPORTANT KIMBLE UPDATE:

Effective Monday April 6th, Kimble will temporally suspend the collection of yard waste bins, yard waste bags, and bundles of yard waste.

If there is room in your GARBAGE can, you can place yard waste there. DO NOT place yard waste in the recycling bin.

Also, they are asking (at this point) that folks hold on to "bulk" trash for the time being. (TVs, couches, mattresses, etc.) If it's necessary to put extra trash out they will pick it up, but that may change next week.

Figuring this was coming after hearing about Republic & Waste Management doing the same thing, I have already explored getting large dumpsters for the residents to use if needed. This won't be available this week but most likely by 4/13 for a short period of time.

The Willowick Mayor and I will be pushing Kimble for a credit to residents once we know how long this will last as well.

Good morning Wickliffe,

This will be our last week of picking up leaves. The past weekend was perfect for getting the leaves out. If you see us go by it will be our last. Kimble will be picking up yard waste until the end of January. Thank you.
We will be starting south of Euclid Avenue and working to the north. We need to convert our trucks from leaf boxes to salt spreaders.

12/03/2019

Hello Wickliffe,

We will be going around the city this week picking up leaves and possibly next, however we are starting to feel the need to convert our leaf trucks into salt trucks. We are doing our best extending time on leaves but soon the weather is going to catch up and we need to be ready. Please use your Kimble container when ever possible. Please get those leaves out, leaf season is coming to a close.

Thank you

11/13/2019

Hello Wickliffe,

We are picking up leaves today. We are working the Cabin, Clark and Johnson area and Bishop Road to Rickey Lane. Very slow moving with all the snow. We have two trucks available due to the fact that we needed to break down a leaf truck to put a salt spreader on it for obvious reasons. Please have patience we will get to your leaves.

10/31/2019

Hello Wickliffe,

I was just informed by City Hall that Halloween "IS ON" for this evening 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Be safe

10/31/2019

Good morning Wickliffe,
We are picking up leaves on the north end of the city, then heading Rush Road to Douglas. We most likely will have crews out next week as the piles are getting larger and more out there. Please remember to use the Kimble container when possible especially for the smaller piles.
Thank you

10/29/2019

Good morning Wickliffe,

We are out picking up leaves and will be south of Ridge Road then heading to the north end. We are not scouring the entire city yet so updates will be brief and not daily. Please use your Kimble container as much as possible. Thank you

10/16/2019

Hello Wickliffe,

Leaf season is upon us. You may see us out testing our equipment however we are not scouring the entire city and picking up every pile at this time. Please use the Kimble containers as often as possible especially for the small piles. As you know we start at one end of the city and move to the other then start over again. If you have any questions please let us know. Thank you in advance for your patience.

12/14/2018

Good morning Wickliffe,

We are receiving calls about leaves. The following is what we suggest: If you put your leaves on the curb you are taking a chance that we will pick them up. We cannot guarantee we will get there. We will have one truck out the beginning of next week picking up curb lines and leaves from our parks. We desperately need to convert our leaf trucks into salt trucks. We understand the unusual warm weather and people have waited to rake. We strongly suggest using the Kimble container to guarantee pick -up. Kimble will pick up yard waste until Janurary 31 and then resume again March 1st.

Thank you.

12/12/2018

Hello Wickliffe,

We are done picking up piles of leaves. We are cleaning up some of the curb lines but that's about it. Please use the Kimble container for your leaves and yard waste.
Thank you

The leaf season is fast approaching and we are getting calls about our start date. We most likely will go out one or two times next week but not canvas the entire city, just pick up random piles. We have notice some piles already. We ask to please use your Kimble container and leaf bags when possible and as often as possible. If the leaf piles are small please use the containter provided by Kimble.
Continue to check this page during the season for updates. Thank you
