The holidays are enjoyable for all – except for dealing with trash pickup. Watch for the garbage pickup schedule in a separate notice in this week’s paper. Garbage pickup for December 25 and 26 will resemble the Thanksgiving week pickup. Christmas is another two-day holiday for town employees. It is great for the employees. Not so much for those answering the phone. Extra holiday visitors and traffic produce more trash. The days off in a row compounded by more trash makes garbage pickup very difficult.
Customers are to expect normal pickup Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, next week. Business dumpsters will be picked up Wednesday. The Thursday and Friday garbage days will be picked up the following Monday and Tuesday, (if necessary). Which brings up another scenario.
