Streets Department announces Update on Sanitation Collections

Reading Time: < 1 minute

PHILADELPHIA, January 5, 2022 – The Streets Department is experiencing trash and recycling collections delays because of the recent COVID-19 surge, announced Streets Commissioner Carlton Williams. We foresee these challenges moving into the following weeks as we work through COVID-19 infections and quarantining in our workforce. Currently, we are experiencing slight delays in trash collection and recycling is a day or more behind in some areas.

Residents should continue to set materials out on their regular day. We are challenged with providing the specific number of days we will be behind as employees available to work fluctuates. Residents can track the progress of collections on their block by clicking on the PickupPHL tab at streetsmartphl.phila.gov. Updates can also be found at phila.gov/streets and on social media.

To avoid collection delays, residents are strongly encouraged to use the City’s Sanitation Convenience Centers open from Monday through Saturday between the hours of 8AM to 6PM. Residents are urged to be mindful of items placed out for collection via our Curb Your Waste Campaign.
