Garbage and vegetative debris are now being picked up for Palm Beach Gardens residents. The following is scheduled:
Week of September 18-
GARBAGE & RECYCLING ONLY. Waste Management has resumed their regular pick up schedule for garbage and recycling. Regular service for non-storm related bulk items such as furniture and mattresses has resumed. Collection services for Palm Beach Gardens residents will take place on their normal pick up day.
Beginning Wednesday, September 13- VEGETATIVE DEBRIS. The City has coordinated pickup of storm vegetation. Gardens residents should place their storm vegetation at the curb and our contractor will remove it. This pass will be for vegetative debris ONLY- no construction debris- and will continue until the entire City has been serviced. *This collection is separate from Waste Management operations. A Debris Clearing Progress Map is available here. Small vegetative waste such as loose leaves will be collected by Waste Management only if securely bagged or containerized.
*Residents are asked to separate piles clear of mailboxes or other obstructions.*
