Waste Management is expanding its service recovery efforts on Wednesday to include certain residential areas, including Bothell, according to its spokeswoman Robin Freedman.
Waste Management is scheduled to run all Wednesday commercial garbage routes, meaning garbage service for all businesses that are normally serviced on Wednesdays.
For Bothell residents who normally receive garbage collection on Wednesdays, Waste Management will be servicing them tomorrow (garbage only).
“The labor disruption continues to be a very unfortunate situation for our customers. Waste Management sincerely apologizes to our community for the inconvenience caused by the Teamsters strike. Waste Management is working diligently to resume services throughout Puget Sound. Additional WM substitute drivers continue to arrive, which will provide additional service capacity,” Freedman said in a press release.
Other cities to receive Wednesday residential customer garbage pick up are: Algona, Auburn, Kirkland, Federal Way, Maple Valley, Mill Creek, Redmond, Renton and Seattle.
Residential recycling and yard-waste collection cervices will be provided to Marysville Wednesday residential customers.
