City of La Porte residents can expect to see different trash trucks servicing their neighborhoods this week.
Beginning this Wednesday, Mar. 1, Waste Management will take over as the city’s contracted trash vendor. This contract includes many positive changes for residents, including the distribution of 96-gallon carts. City Engineer Nick Minich said while there will be no changes to the pick-up schedule, trash may not be picked up at residents’ usual times.
Minich said carts may take up to four weeks to be delivered. In the meantime, residents should continue using their current containers.
