Now, as summer storms pummel the Treasure Coast, delays have worsened; threatening to end two of the garbage company s contracts. Weather is always a factor in Florida, and we work with Waste Pro to use their call-notification system whenever there are delays, said city spokesperson Sarah Prohaska.
Both Port St. Lucie and county are pleading for customers patience and asking them to leave garbage out for either late collection or early collection the next day.
Moreover, in unincorporated county neighborhoods where waste collection was missed this week, customers are asked to put their trash bins out between 7 a.m. and 8:30 p.m. if possible, officials said in a news release.
