IMMEDIATE RELEASE: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2018
Due to a natural gas pipeline rupture, solid waste (garbage, yard waste and recycling) is CANCELED for today, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11, 2018 for Waste Management customers. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation. The Waste Management trucks that service the City of Auburn are powered by compressed natural gas and the company has been affected by the potential shortage of natural gas.
