Garbage pick up schedule this week?

Did the Snowpocalypse or Xmas change the normal pick up schedule? Thx

I just called 311 and spoke to someone who said that trash pickup for Monday had already happened despite the snowmergency and that trash was on time despite Christmas

Last night I was feeling pretty apprehensive about going outside in the blizzard, so I just looked up and down my street around 11 and when I saw that only one house had put out trash, I took a gamble and didn't bother. Clearly I made the wrong choice.

No.
Nor was my recycling taken this morning which is a major bummer. (I put it out later than 7:00 AM)

I called 311 last night also and was told nothing changed. My recycling was NOT picked up though.

Cambridge did the Monday morning pickup today.

Note to the DSLJ moderators: Can you change the setting to display Eastern time rather than UTC? That comment was posted Monday, but its UTC timestamp is on Tuesday.

Where do I find this setting? The comment you replied to says "2010-12-27 08:41 pm (local)" which looks like Monday to me.

You can set your time zone under Display in your Account settings. If you don't have it set, it defaults to UTC (i.e., Greenwich Mean Time), which currently is five hours ahead of Eastern Time.

Ours came by much earlier than they'd been coming - both trash and recycling trucks zipped down the street because nobody had gotten their trash or recycling out yesterday at 8am, big surprise. Our neighbor called 311 and they actually sent the truck back for another round and we did get our stuff picked up after all.

The rest of the week should be a normal schedule though.

They missed our entire street! I just got home & submitted a ticket with 311.
