2019 SANITATION/RECYCLING CALENDAR MADE EASIER TO UNDERSTAND Some people have told me that they are still confused about the new 2019 sanitation schedule. There are separate calendars for different areas and some people (not all) are stressed, trying to figure out how the changes will impact them. I asked town staff to come up with a simple narrative. I hope that the following will be helpful. It’s really a simple schedule –with enhanced services—weekly paper and commingled pickup and twice a week sanitation. The following should help you understand the calendar. The mailing house has accepted responsibility for the mistake (sending out some wrong calendars) and will be absorbing the costs. Those who did not receive the calendar should receive one soon. I feel that these constant e mails and robo calls about the sanitation/recycling changes may be over kill but it’s not overkill for those who were still confused. And – it’s our job to make you less stressed, not more. The Town of Greenburgh Department of Public Works is implementing a new recycling program that increases the frequency of weekly recycling while continuing to provide two regular solid waste (garbage) collection days each non-holiday week. For the 2019 Sanitation Calendar please note the following: The sanitation schedule for the upcoming week is as follows: Wednesday, January 2, 2019: Commingle Recycling Collection – Townwide Thursday, January 3, 2019: Garbage Collection in South End of Town Paper Recycling Collection for residents in the ORANGE Area Friday, January 4, 2019: Garbage Collection in the North End of Town Paper Recycling Collection for residents in the BLUE Area Monday, January 7, 2019: Garbage Collection in the South End of Town Paper Recycling Collection for residents in the YELLOW Area Tuesday, January 8, 2019: Garbage Collection in the North End of Town Paper Recycling Collection for residents in the GREEN Area Wednesday, January 9, 2019: Commingle Recycling Collection - Townwide Please be advised that all material must be at the curbside by 7:00 A.M. Material placed at the curbside after 7:00 A.M. will not be picked up. PAUL FEINER
