Overview
- In parts of the Verbandsgemeinden Leiningerland and Freinsheim, bins were not emptied on January 3 due to icy, unsafe streets.
- The AWB said missed routes would be caught up on Monday, January 5, and warned that further pickups across the district may shift during the week.
- Higher-elevation streets, steep gradients, and narrow roads with parked cars remain hardest to service because icy conditions raise accident risk for heavy vehicles.
- Residents should place bins out by 6:00 a.m. and leave them until evening; extra waste may be set next to containers, avoiding Yellow Sacks, with bio-waste in paper or cardboard and paper in boxes.
- Households may move bins to a cleared main road for collection or take cardboard and paper to the recycling sites in Friedelsheim, Haßloch, or the waste center in Grünstadt during opening hours.
