The City's solid waste contractor, GFL, has announced delays in their recycling and yard debris collection due to equipment failure that occurred on Thursday. Residents who typically have their waste collected on Thursdays and Fridays are advised to keep their bins out, as crews work diligently to catch up over the coming days.

According to the City's recent alert, patience is key while GFL addresses the issue. Despite the inconvenience, weather delays from earlier in the week are the cause, Wednesday customers can expect their solid waste to be collected tomorrow.

For residents with mounting concerns or questions regarding the schedule alterations, the City has provided contact options. Considering the delays might prompt an increase in communication, the City's representatives can be reached at (904) 247-5834 or by email at [email protected], ensuring that the public remains informed during these service interruptions.
