Due to the anticipated effects of Hurricane Delta, the River Birch Landfill will close at 3:00 pm on Friday, October 9, 2020.

Therefore, Waste Connections will suspend all garbage, recycling and bulk waste collection after 3:00 pm on Friday afternoon.

Residents that do not receive service by 3:00 pm on Friday, October 9, 2020, are encouraged to remove their cans and bins from the curb and secure all loose items that could impede the flow of water to storm drains.

Every reasonable effort will be made to pick up on the customer’s next scheduled collection day.

Due to the anticipated effects of Hurricane Delta, all four Jefferson Parish Trash Drop-Off sites will also be closing at 3:00 pm on Friday.

Curbside trash collection for Saturday’s routes will take place, as scheduled, assuming weather conditions allow.
