The City of Bellefontaine reports that Republic Services has advised that the recycling collection truck is being repaired and will not be in operation again until Friday, May 21, at the earliest.
The recycling items will be picked up by a refuse collection truck in two separate routes to allow for the necessary separation between paper items and container items.
Residents are asked to leave their recycling bins at the curbside until collected.
“We are sorry for the situation and confusion during this time. Thank you for your considerations,” city officials said.
