Unanticipated Disruption in Trash Services

Date Posted: Tuesday, September 22nd, 2020

Late yesterday afternoon Townhall was notified that there were difficulties in collection of garbage and recyclables in a portion of Town.  All garbage and recyclables should be collected by the end of today.  The Town Manager has been in touch with GFL to assure that plans are being put in place to manage any disruption in service. 

The delay is being caused by the temporary closure of the Pine Tree Solid Waste Transfer Station for improvements.  This means that trucks must travel over an hour and a half each way to offload in Felton, DE. GFL is working with the Town to assure that there is a proper contingency plan in place until the Pine Tree Solid Waste Transfer Station reopens.
