    PUNTA GORDA — Due to the excessive afternoon heat, the city of Punta Gorda’s Sanitation Division is temporarily adjusting the garbage and yard waste collection.

    Beginning Tuesday, July 30, residents are asked to set their trash and yard waste containers curbside by 5 a.m. — or the evening before the scheduled collection day, city officials stated in a media release.

    The earlier trash collection times allow staff to begin collecting the trash and yard waste one hour earlier than normal to avoid the afternoon heat.

    For more information, contact the city’s Public Works Department at 941-575-5050 between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. weekdays.
