Trash collection delay announced for KCK

Residential and commercial trash collection in Wyandotte County will be delayed because of the icy weather, according to Waste Management of Kansas City.

“With the current poor road conditions due to the icy weather, our primary concern is for the safety of our drivers and the public,” said Paul Howe, senior manager of community relations manager for Waste Management, in an announcement earlier today. “As a result, we are pulling collection vehicles off the road at this time.”

Thursday residential service will be collected on Friday, and Friday customers will be collected by end of day Saturday, according to the announcement.

“We appreciate the understanding and patience of our customers,” Howe said.
