St. Tammany Parish Customers

CHANGE IN SERVICE SCHEDULE FOR THIS WEEK!

We have been in communication with the Parish and local officials throughout the weekend. We received rain yesterday and most of the this morning and early afternoon. There is a possibility that the roads may not dry before the extremely cold and freezing temperatures arrive later this evening. This means that the road conditions could be dangerous tomorrow. Therefore, out of an abundance of caution, and for the Safety of our Team Members, we have made the decision to cancel services tomorrow. Our office will also be closed tomorrow. We will reopen at 8am on Tuesday morning.

Please see below for the schedule for the remainder of the week.

RECYCLING IS CANCELLED FOR THIS WEEK. We will resume our regular recycling routes next week. Please DO NOT place your recyclables at the curb at all this week.

MONDAY -- ALL ROUTES ARE CANCELLED! (Commercial and          Residential) There will not be a make up day for residential customers that receive service 2x per week on Monday/Thursday routes. Customers that are normally serviced 1x per week on Monday will be serviced on Tuesday.

TUESDAY -- We will service all garbage routes normally serviced on Tuesday. We will also service customers that receive 1x per week service on Monday. We will not service any recycling routes.

WEDNESDAY - We will service all garbage routes that are normally serviced on Wednesday. We will not service any recycling routes.

THURSDAY - We will service all garbage routes that are normally serviced on Thursday. We will not service any recycling routes.

FRIDAY - We will service all garbage routes that are normally service on Friday.

Please have your cart(s) to the curb the night prior to the day we are scheduled to collect your garbage.

The Safety of our TEAM MEMBERS will always be our Top Priority. We appreciate your patience and understanding especially when we have to make adjustments like this to our collection schedule.

We hope everyone stays safe and warm!

All Other Customers

Our plan as of right now is to run all routes as scheduled. We may get a later start than normal. However, if the road conditions are worse than we anticipate them being, we may decide to pull our trucks off the road. But at time we are planning on servicing all Monday routes.

Due to unforeseen circumstances caused by Hurricane Francine, we have made adjustments to the schedule for this week for both Thursday and Friday!

1) THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 12TH – Today we are only running 6 routes. These are routes that are in the rural parts of the parish. 5 of these routes are normal 1x per week Thursday routes and 1 of the routes is a normal 1x per week Wednesday route in the Slidell area.

‍

2) FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 13TH – We will only be running 1x per week routes. We will be servicing customers in the City of Mandeville and the City of Covington that are normally serviced 1x per week on Wednesdays. We will also be servicing all 1x per week customers that are normally serviced on Fridays . Please have your cart(s) to the curb tonight or by 4am Friday morning.

‍

3) Any customers that currently receive 2x per week service on Monday/Thursday or Tuesday/Friday — we will not be running your second collection day (Thursday or Friday) this week. This includes the City of Slidell, Garbage District #1 (Tammany Utilities), Eden Isles, Oak Harbor, Lakeshore Estates, Lakeshore Villages, and several HOA’s across St. Tammany Parish. We will resume your 2x per week service next week.

‍

4) We are not running any boom trucks today or tomorrow in any of the municipalities that we service. We will resume running the scheduled zones next week. Please check our website for when we will be in your area.

‍

5) Recycling for Wednesday and Thursday was canceled for earlier this week. We will resume our normal recycling schedule next week.

‍

6) As you begin your clean up process, we ask that you please not overload your household garbage cart(s) with storm debris. (Branches, fence boards, etc) If you do place green waste in your cart(s), please bag the waste. The lid must be closed or not open more than 6 inches so that we can service the cart.

‍

We appreciate your patience and understanding over the past several days as we needed to make adjustments to our collection schedule due to Hurricane Francine. We look forward to getting back to our normal schedule next week.
