According to Waste Management (WM), Tuesday’s route will be completed today and tomorrow. However, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday service will be suspended until next week.
Unlike many cities, trash in Kansas City, Kansas, is collected manually. Officials noted that the severe cold makes it difficult for crews to safely and efficiently complete their routes.
