The City of Salina reminds sanitation customers that the transition to new waste carts will begin next week.
Beginning Monday, the new City of Salina waste carts will begin to be delivered and all old city trash and yard waste carts will start to be removed.
The city asks that customers on the first regular collection day on or after Monday set out all old existing trash and yard waste carts for collection and removal.
"If customers receive their new waste cart(s), and their old trash and yard waste carts were not removed, please leave the old carts out and empty until they are. The old carts should be removed over the next day at the latest, if not immediately. If customers find that their new waste cart(s) were not delivered the week of July 5, please setout all existing waste carts the week of July 12 as normal, to be collected and removed," the city noted in a news release.
An information packet containing the new waste collection map and new sanitation collection guidelines will be attached to the new waste carts upon delivery, the city noted. The new waste collection map and new sanitation collection guidelines will take effect July 19.
