Cedar Rapids garbage/recycling/compost collection will be impacted by this week's snow event. Thursday and Friday garbage and recycling collection will be delayed until Monday, Dec. 26.
Yard waste/compost and glass recycling collection will be delayed until Monday, Jan. 2. Next week's garbage and recycling collection may be impacted as well; residents are asked to have GARBY and CURBY garbage and recycling carts to collection areas by 7 a.m. on their normal collection day next week, and to leave carts out until they are collected, even if there is a delay. "When in doubt, leave it out."
There will be no delay in garbage/recycling/compost collection for the New Year's holiday, due to the holiday falling on a weekend this year.
Additionally, the Solid Waste and Recycling Division reminds residents that placing carts or extra tagged garbage bags on snowbanks creates a safety hazard for crews, and to please place carts and bags along one half of the driveway or to clear a section of snow next to the driveway in the normal collection area so that carts and bags can be safely collected from street level. More information is available at CityofCR.com/Garbage.
