The recently redesigned city of Vancouver website has a new service for residents who need help remembering which days to put out trash.
By entering their address, residents can view and print a calendar schedule showing garbage, recycling and optional yard debris collection services. Residents can also sign up to receive reminders via email, a phone call or private Twitter message.
The new services are at http://cityofvancouver.us/solidwaste.
There’s no additional cost for the reminders, according to a city news release. Sponsors of the online tool are the city, Clark County and Waste Connections Inc., which, according to the news release, “expect to reduce customer call volumes and improve customer service and response times.”
