City of Garland Press Release:

Winter Weather Continues to Cause Delays

This past weekend's heavy snows continue to cause delays in the pickup of brush and other bulky goods.
 
Poor road conditions forced Garland's Environmental Waste Services Department to delay last Friday's collection routes, which were completed Monday. However, the high volume of damaged trees and shrubbery, combined with that delay, is causing the Brush/Bulky Goods Division to operate about one day behind schedule.
 
It is anticipated that brush/bulky goods collection for the Tuesday collection area will begin on Wednesday, February 17, 2010. For more information, contact Environmental Waste Services at 972-205-3500.
 

 
The delays last Friday didn't affect any District 1 neigbhorhoods, however, the subsequent delays might affect collections this week, especially gathering the higher than usual number of broken limbs that fell because of heavy snow loads. If your brush and bulky items day comes and goes, please know that crews are coming and give it another day. If you have questions, feel free to call the number above.
