Oyster Bay Town Garbage, Recycling Pickup Scrapped Until Thursday

OYSTER BAY, NY — The Town of Oyster Bay’s sanitation and recycling collection has been cancelled until Thursday, town officials said Monday.

The modification will allow the town to maximize its snow removal operations, according to Supervisor Joseph Saladino. “We appreciate our residents’ patience and cooperation as this storm has already left significant snowfall in our area,” he stated in a news release.

Saladino also asked that residents remove their cars off of the street so that plows can “efficiently navigate roadways,” adding, “With a recently-declared State of Emergency declared for our area, residents are urged to not travel unless absolutely necessary.”

To report any emergency situations in the Town of Oyster Bay, including flooding, downed trees or stranded cars, call the Public Safety Department at (516)677-5757.
