This morning the communities within the Mid Michigan Waste Authority service area are waking up to significant snow accumulation, blowing and drifting. Waste Management trucks are on the roads in all communities attempting collection today, but some roads and areas may not be serviceable due to the inclement weather conditions. There are many secondary roads, particularly in the more rural areas, that are not yet plowed.
Roads/areas found to be impassable when the truck goes by will not have collection service reattempts until the regular collection day next week. Residents who set out materials that are not picked up are asked to remove materials from the curb until their service day next week to allow snow plow crews better access. Residents may also decide not to set waste materials out to avoid them being covered with snow.
