City decides to pick-up Tuesday's trash, recycle collections

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- After cancelling Tuesday's trash and recycle pickups, and because of the lighter than anticipated snowfall, the Philadelphia Streets Department will conduct trash and recycling collection today.

Crews that had mobilized for salting and plowing will now be shifted to resume the regular Tuesday trash and recycling collection.

Any resident who misses the pickup today, may leave their trash and recycling at their normal collection location on Wednesday.

Portions of the city that receive trash and recycling collection on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday should follow their normal schedule.
