HRM Requests Removal of Garbage/Compost Bins from Curb

(Wednesday, February 17, 2010) - HRM is requesting that all items left at the curb today in those areas where the collection of garbage, organics, and recyclables were cancelled due to the storm event and poor weather and road conditions, please be removed so that HRM crews can complete their snow clearing operations.

The alternate collection day to replace Wednesday's collection will be this Saturday, February 20, 2010. Residents are reminded to place materials curbside by 7:00 AM on collection day to ensure service, as collection times may vary.

Thank you for your cooperation.
