The New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY) has announced that there will be no trash, curbside compost, or recycling collection on Italian Heritage Day/Indigenous Peoples’ Day, Monday Oct. 14.

 

Residents who normally receive Monday trash, curbside compost or recycling collection should place their material at the curb Monday evening for collection starting Tuesday, Oct. 15.

DSNY officials said residents may experience collection delays, as is common after holidays and appreciate residents’ patience as they work to collect the backlog of material.
