I grew up in Philly. On my street were electricians, HVAC technicians, nurses, teachers, and business executives. We shared a lot in common & one huge thing: rooting for the Eagles. Good luck to my Philly friends and family this weekend.

Philadelphia just announced twice-a-week trash collection starting in December covering most of Center City & South Philly.

www.phila.gov/2024-11-14-t...
Map of trash collection scheduled days THE PROBLEM The City of Philadelphia has had a significant increase in illegal dumping cases over the past few decades. In recent years, the Department of Sanitation has been required to spend nearly $1.5 million ANNUALLY just to clean up items that have been illegally dumped. Illegal dumping complaints are some of the MOST COMMON 311 calls from City of Philadelphia residents, leading to several problems in our communities: • Neighborhood appearance (high litter index) • Public health and safety • Decrease in property values • Increases in crime Residential illegal dumping is a common source (along with construction materials, tires, etc.). Residential illegal dumping occurs when household trash is set out at separate locations other than the legal property address and outside the scheduled collection time. This form of illegal dumping is frequently found in densely populated neighborhoods, in areas that are zoned for multi-family use. These communities typically have limited trash/recycling storage capacity, and, hence, are more likely to dump in locations away from their residence. Specifically, this sort of dumping is found in a variety of locations: • Street corners • Empty lots • Public trash cans • Parks and recreation centers THE SOLUTION To help combat illegal dumping, the City of Philadelphia will be introducing a more efficient, resident-friendly practice: increasing trash collection frequency to twice a week in densely populated communities. Not only will this decrease litter and illegal dumping in public spaces, it will also help to keep our streets and sidewalks safer, cleaner, and greener, providing a more consistent collection program for residents to take advantage of. THE PILOT PROGRAM Residents within the boundaries of Callowhill to Pattison Avenue from the Schuylkill Expressway (30th St) to Delaware Avenue will receive twice-per-week collections beginning December 2, 2024. TRASH COLLECTION REMINDERS • Weekly curbside collections offered to residential household dwellings between one 1) and six (6) units • Up to two (2) large items per household collected curbside. Visit Phila.gov/Sanitation for more information on the Department of Sanitation's NEW Bulk Collections program. • Up to eight (8) bags or four (4) 32-gallon max containers per household • Place trash curbside between 5pm (fall/winter) / 7pm (spring/summer) the night before and 7am the morning of your collection day After a City-observed holiday, trash and recycling collections are delayed by one day for the rest of the week. There will be NO second collection during a holiday week. UPCOMING CITY-OBSERVED HOLIDAYS: Christmas Day - Wednesday, December 25, 2024 New Year's Day - Wednesday, January 1, 2025 Martin Luther King, Jr. Day - Monday, January 20, 2025 Presidents' Day - Monday, February 17, 2025 Good Friday - Friday, April 18, 2025 Memorial Day - Monday, May 26, 2025 Juneteenth - Thursday, June 19, 2025 Independence Day - Friday, July 4, 2025 Labor Day - Monday, September 1, 2025 Indigenous Peoples' Day - Monday, October 13, 2025 Veterans Day - Tuesday, November 11, 2025 Thanksgiving - Thursday, November 27, 2025 Thanksgiving Friday - Friday, November 28, 2025 Christmas Day - Thursday, December 25, 2025 To find out your collection schedule, scan the QR code. Residents can use the network of six (6) Sanitation Convenience Centers located throughout the City for regular household item drop-off daily or oversized item drop-off weekly. ID required. To find a center near you or more details on the program, scan the QR code.

This is so rad- someone living next to a bus stop in Philly programmed an old clock to let folks know when the next bus is coming.
