The upcoming Memorial Day holiday does impact solid waste collection services provided to the 34 Mid Michigan Waste Authority (MMWA) member communities. There will be no trash, recycling, or yard waste collection provided on Monday, May 27, 2024. With the holiday falling on a weekday, collection services will be delayed one day for every community the week of Memorial Day. Residents should prepare and set out materials one day later than they normally do during the holiday week.
MMWA would like to remind our residents that safety is always MMWA’s, WM’s and Priority’s top concern.
Currently, both WM and Priority are attempting service in all Friday communities. Given today’s weather conditions including accumulating snow, iciness, and blowing winds, service may be impacted in some areas.
If Priority and WM trucks encounter areas that are not safe to travel, they will be unable to collect your materials until your next service day.
A few reminders:
For inclement weather updates and cancellations visit MMWA’s website at www.recyclemotion.org and Facebook.
