There’s no place like home for the holidays…including for those charged with collecting the holiday leftovers like wrapping paper, cups and everything else discarded.. Accordingly, the City of Sheboygan has announced changes to the usual garbage and recycling schedule.
With both Christmas and New Year’s Day falling on Mondays, those trucks will be showing up one day later so that next week Monday’s collection will occur on Tuesday, Tuesday’s on Wednesday, and so forth until Saturday December 30th. An identical offset will be in place for the new year, with no collection on Monday, January 1st, and that week’s Friday’s pickup taking place on Saturday the 6th.
In anticipation of a large volume of recyclables, the City will have extra trucks posted at its New Jersey Avenue facility from December 26th through the 29th, as well as January 2nd through the 5th. Anything that won’t fit in your cart should be dropped off there, with a reminder to not bag those recyclables since that can jam the machinery. And on a final note, the recycling center will be closed on both Christmas and New Year’s Day as well as on the usual Sundays.
Here’s the detailed collection schedule from the Sheboygan DPW:
