The holiday always bring an extra dose of work to those in the
service industries. For some it is where they may their money for the
year, for others it is where they work overtime to take care of us
consumers.
As we gorge our selves on Thanksgiving or gleefully shout with joy
at Christmas, the garbage men are usually working overtime to clean up
from our excesses.
If you are a customer of Green Waste garbage service,
please note that the holidays have changed the usual pick up times for
garbage. Since Thanksgiving occurs on Thursday Novenber 27th,2008, your
service will be pushed back a day. For those who usually have service
on Friday, your garbage service will be on Saturday.
Christmas Day, December 25th, which is also a Thursday, will have the service moved forward one day.
New Years day, January 1, 2009 ( hard to believe it is so near),
also a Thursday, will have the refuse picked the up the following day.
Please continue to recycle you Santa Cruz waste. Recycling is so
necessary to save ourselves money and global pollution reduction. The
cost of building another waste disposal site is difficult and expensive
as no one wants to have their Santa Cruz home
near one.While Santa Cruz real estate prices are coming down, the cost
of land is still a big impediment. Recycling is the best way to keep
the costs down, the pollution of our soil and air, and our local
economy healthier.
Greenwaste recycling
is something we can all get behind. So while you enjoy the holidays,
remember to sort out all the recyclables that you can from your
garbage. For more information, call 831-426-2711
If you are a City of Santa Cruz
waste customer call them at 420-5220 for more information on additional
pick ups, but your pickup days will not change for the holidays.
