    Trash pickups shift earlier

    By Adam Tamburin,

    Extreme heat is pushing Metro trash pickups an hour earlier.

    State of play: Starting Monday , the city's curbside trash and recycling pickups will begin at 6am rather than 7am to allow crews to shift more of their work outside of the hottest times of the day.


    • Metro Waste Services is urging residents to make sure their bins are in place the night before.

    The big picture: Dangerous heat has pummeled the nation for weeks now, and hot conditions aren't going anywhere. July, which is typically the hottest month of the year , could be even hotter than usual, according to an outlook from the National Weather Service.
