| Posted on: www.cb14brooklyn.com |
In observance of New Year’s Day, there will be no garbage, recycling or organics collection, or street cleaning on Friday, January 1. Collection days have been rescheduled and DSNY will work to collect all material as quickly as possible. For residents with normal Friday garbage and/or recycling collection:
Garbage Collection: Residents should place their garbage out at curbside after 4 p.m. on Friday, January 1 for collection.
Recycling Collection: Residents should place their recycling material (paper, metal, glass and plastic) out at curbside after 4 p.m. on Thursday, January 7 for collection.
All DSNY administrative offices, along with most New York City agency offices, will be closed on New Year’s Day. The Department of Sanitation (DSNY) promotes a healthy environment through the efficient management of solid waste and the development of environmentally sound long-range planning for handling refuse, including recyclables. The Department operates 59 district garages and manages a fleet of more than 2,000 rear-loading collection trucks, 450 mechanical brooms and 500 salt/sand spreaders. The Department clears litter, snow and ice from approximately 6,500 miles of City streets and removes debris from vacant lots as well as abandoned vehicles from City streets.
