Good news for locals who rely on municipal waste services: The City of Tampa has announced that the McKay Bay Waste Disposal Complex and Scale House will return to normal operating hours starting September 16. This means that the facility at 114 South 34th Street Tampa, FL 33605, which serves as a crucial node in the city's waste management system, will be more accessible for residents and businesses to dispose of waste during the newly announced hours, according to a statement from the City of Tampa.
After adjustments in its schedule, the facility's hours are set for Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., along with Wednesdays and Saturdays from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Residents with overlapping schedules within the City of Tampa limits, and account holders of Residential Solid Waste, can get rid of selected accepted items without having to shoulder additional charges.
The city also aims to streamline waste disposal processes by offering technological solutions. Tampa residents can download the Tampa Trash and Recycling app from either the Apple App Store or Google Play Store to receive a personalized collection schedule. The initiative not only promotes proper waste management but also provides the convenience of digital access to municipal services.
In case customers with the resumed hours need help or have questions, the City of Tampa Utilities Call Center is open for inquiries at (813) 274-8811.
