"When will my trash get picked up?" was surely the top question on many Philadelphians' minds after hearing the DC 33 strike, including sanitation workers, was over on Wednesday morning.
And now we know: regular trash pickup in the city of Philadelphia will resume Monday, July 14, Mayor Cherelle Parker and Director of Clean and Green Initiatives Carlton Williams said in a news conference.
Here's more about what to know about trash disposal in the city now that the strike is over.
Where do I drop off my trash in Philadelphia?
Remember those 63 temporary drop-off sites? Williams says those are being phased out and urges you not to bring your trash there.
Instead, you should bring your garbage to one of the city's six sanitation convenience centers. These sites were in existence prior to the strike, and you may have visited one before if you ever had to dispose of bulk items (the proper way).
You can see a map of the six sanitation convenience centers here on the city's website, Phila.gov, or check out the list below.

Just wait till the cities start operating grocery stores...
that’s how they used to do it in rural areas, usually without the barrel ...
When my garbage backs up, I take a little time off and take it to the dump myself. $15-20 in most locales. Backcharge the trash company for fuel and dump fees.
If I were mayor, I’d tell them to pick up their own damn trash and take it to the dump. The days of a babysitting government are over.
[[ and what do I do with my garbage now?]]
Drop it off at city hall?
Drop it off at Mayor Cherelle Parker's home. The more the merrier.
Find the union headquarters.
Garbage can go there to get if off the streets where the union members left it alone, and the garbage will be right at home with the Leftists there. Cozy.
Not Philadelphia but NYC for Neil Simon’s The Out of Towners (Jack Lemmon and Sandy Dennis, 1970):
“The city’s subway and bus drivers, taxicab drivers, and sanitation workers are all on strike. Making their way the eight long city blocks to the Waldorf-Astoria on foot past tons of garbage in a torrential downpour, they discover upon arrival at the hotel their reservation, guaranteed,...—has been given away, and the hotel, like every other one in the city, is booked to capacity due to the strikes.”
all of them should have been fired and replaced
I have the freedom to do that if I so choose here in Louisiana . I burn all the fallen branches/yard raking’s/cardboard etc...I have woods on three sides of my home , there is always enough for 5-7 burns per year. I feel bad for those who by law can’t burn.
At our house where we lived for over four decades, I had a Ford F-250 and six garbage cans. I loaded them, filled the rest of the back with recycles, and went to the dump.
“When will Philadelphia trash pickup resume after strike deal reached, and what do I do with my garbage now?”
Maybe stop voting for the UNION LOVING Democrats and you won’t have to put up with this crap.
Burn it and spread the ashes over subsequent garbage pickups over time.
City hall front lawn...
You take your garbage to the union president’s house.
I would put my pick up and car trailer with sides to work. I can carry 18 roll carts at $20 a cart and probably make three loads a day to the dump. That is $1080 a day minus fuel and dump fees. Fuel would probably be $100-$150 a day and dump fees about $150 a day. So $700 a day average. $3500 for five days. $4900 if I worked seven days. If it lasted a month that would be around $19,600 for a months work.
