Starting April 19, the city’s garbage collection will be converted to an automated collection system. Curbside recycling will still be done by the Fulton County Department of Solid Waste.
The firm was to start May 1, but has decided to give the city two weeks free service, moving up the starting date to April 19.
Mayor Vincent DeSantis said Tuesday that the Halfmoon-based Twin Bridges Waste & Recycling firm will deposit the receptacles or “collection carts” with instructions at the residences from April 12 through 16. When you get your receptacle depends on your current garbage pickup date.
