City of Casper announces no extra trash collection for February

CASPER, Wyo. — The City of Casper recently announced that there will be no additional or special trash collection services during the month of February.

A release from the city states that regular weekly collection schedules will continue without interruption.

During February, collection crews will only pick up trash that is fully contained inside city-issued trash bins.

Any bags, boxes, bulk waste or loose items placed next to, on top of or outside the bins will not be collected. Residents are asked to ensure that all household waste fits securely inside their bins with the lids closed. Items that do not fit inside the bins should be held until extra collection resumes in March or taken to an approved disposal site.

“This short pause lets us spend time training our staff and taking care of the equipment so we can provide better services for the rest of the year,” stated Cynthia Langston, the Casper regional solid waste manager.

Extra trash collection will resume in March. Residents are encouraged to hold any overflow until services restart next month.
