Town of Garner issued the following announcement on Apr. 10.
The Town's spring unprepared trash and yard waste collection, which was suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic, will resume April 27. Here are the routes remaining to be collected: Thursday (Purple and Yellow), Friday (Brown and Blue) and Tuesday (Green, Gold and Tan). Everyone on those routes should put their waste out by the 27th (if it is not already curbside).
Please separate out yard waste from other bulky trash items. These items will not be collected: tires, hazardous waste and paint, appliances, and yard waste and debris generated by tree-cutting companies and other commercial services.
It may take several weeks to cover these remaining routes. We appreciate your patience as crews work to provide this special service. Please do not approach our crews while they are out collecting the debris and waste.
For more information about resumption of this service, please email Public Works at publicworksservicedesk@garnernc.gov or call 919.772.7600.
Also, All-Star Waste is now offering yard waste rollout carts (96 gallons, same as the tall green containers for garbage; see brown bins in photo below) for sale for $50. They'll deliver it to you. Pre-order by texting 919.989.1562. All-Star has sold out of their current supply of carts, but you can still pre-order for carts that will be back in stock in several weeks. You will be able to use the cart to put loose yard waste (not bound or in bags) curbside as part of your regular weekly collection.
