Waste Management customers with regularly scheduled service on Friday, July 4 will still receive service on their usual pickup day this week, the company announced.
“We hope everyone has a safe and fun Fourth of July,” said Jamie Vernon, Public Sector Manager for Waste Management. “While the holiday is often celebrated with cookouts and fireworks, Waste Management asks residents to ensure that no hot fireworks or coals are placed in their carts.”
To help prevent fires and ensure safe waste disposal, Waste Management encourages residents to soak used fireworks and charcoal in water and wait at least 48 hours before placing them in solid waste carts.
