Residents of Chester, PA should be aware of important changes to their waste disposal schedule during the transition into the New Year. The City of Chester Government announced on social media that, due to the New Year's Day holiday on Thursday, January 1, trash and recycling services will follow an adjusted timetable for this week. Specifically, Thursday's trash pickup has been moved to Wednesday, with a notable change that recycling will not be collected on Wednesday.
As the city gears up for 2025, starting on Friday, January 2, a new system will be introduced by their new hauler, Casella. From that date forward, residents are advised to place both trash and recycling carts out on their collection day, signaling the start of a same-day pickup for both services. The announcement posted by the City of Chester emphasized the shift as part of the transition to Casella's services.
To further assist residents with these adjustments and provide more comprehensive information about the waste management policies, Chester City has encouraged its citizens to visit its website. By pointing to the dedicated page for trash and recycling collection, the city aims to ensure that all community members are well-informed and able to easily adjust to the new schedule.
In closing their social media update, the City of Chester extended wishes for a fun and safe holiday to all. The communication of these service adjustments reflects the City's commitment to keeping its residents informed and prepared for changes as they celebrate the holiday season and move into a new year of municipal services. It's clear that as the calendar turns, residents can expect streamlined processes around waste removal, thanks to the partnership with Casella and the proactive approach of the city government.
