TRASH TALK

If you have been reading the paper or watching the news, chances are you’ve heard about Omaha Municipal
Code Section 33-49.

According to the new code, which goes into effect June 1, 2012, Omahans will no longer be able to get away with setting their garbage cans out on the curb prior to 5 p.m. the evening before their neighborhood’s scheduled trash pick-up without risking a $100 fine for first time offenders and up to $500 for each additional infraction.

In Armbrust Acres, this means residents shouldn’t take the trash out before 5 p.m. on Tuesday each week and that residents will need to remember to bring their garbage bins in by 10 a.m. on Thursday.

There are exclusions to the new rule such as holiday and weather delays. For example, on a bad weather day, instead of needing to have your trash bins back in the garage by 10 a.m. the day after trash pick up, the time is extended to 7 p.m. the day after Armbrust’s weekly trash day.

Residents who have a hardship or disability that make it difficult to comply with the new rule can apply for a special permit by contacting the Public Works Department.

Now that you know the new trash rules, are you wondering what to do with your spring cleaning discards? According to Rose Bockelman, anything you can’t throw out in the trash, such as old furniture, can be discarded by hauling these items to Faithful Shepherd Church at 2530 S. 165th Avenue, between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m., May 5. Call 402-444- 4636 for details.
