I just spoke with Andy Ryan at Seattle Public Utilities. He confirmed that Pinehurst residential trash removal that normally occurs on Thursdays will occur Friday, January 2nd.
Crews were out in North Seattle yesterday as predicted, but they were only able to access a few locations. Unfortunately, most of Pinehurst now has about 3 weeks of trash. Seattle Public Utilities is aware of this and appreciates our patience and understanding in this process. Obviously, dealing with this is better than having multiple ton dump trucks in accidents in our neighborhoods.
You can put out your garbage from the past three weeks and it will all be taken. (I asked for clarification on exactly how much folks can put out. “Three weeks of trash” is okay. Cleaning out your basement is not.)
If you have any questions, you can phone Seattle Public Utilities at 206-684-3000 or visit their web site at www.seattle.gov/util.
