Effective Monday, April 22, Largest Trash Pick-Up Shift to Begin One Hour Earlier

As part of ongoing efforts to ensure that 24 million pounds of residential waste spend as little time in public spaces as possible, officials from New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY) said the agency’s largest trash collection shift will move an hour earlier effective Monday, April 22. They said the shift has traditionally operated from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m., but will instead begin at 5 a.m. and finish at 1 p.m. going forward.
