Talking trash

New trash and recycling carts have arrived at the City of Plymouth Department of Municipal Services yard. Officials said delivery of the new containers to city residents will occur beginning next month.Residents have the option of standard 65-gallon containers or can request a 95-gallon cart in advance. The carts include a lid to reduce odors and to deter animals. out. The carts are emptied by a truck equipped with an automated articulating arm, so the driver never has to get out of the cab. Therefore, all trash and recycling items must be placed within the confines of the carts. Hazardous materials, liquids, concrete, and compost including dirt and sod may not be placed in automated trash or recycling carts. For more details, visit plymouthmi.gov (municipal services).
