Trash pickup will go on Thursday but may be late because of snow in Kansas City
Trash collections may be late Thursday because of a surprise snow that moved through the Kansas City area, officials said on social media.
While collections may happen later than usual because of the inclement weather, Kansas City announced it wouldn’t be canceling pick ups.
A surprise wet snow fell across the Kansas City area overnight, creating slick and slushy roads and shutting down at least one metro area highway early in Thursday morning.
In Kansas City, Kansas, officials said trash and recycling pickups would be canceled Thursday. Residents who normally put out their trash on Thursday or Friday should do so the following day.
Drivers were being advised to delay their morning commutes if possible. And if they had to head out they were urged to be careful of the road conditions.
Kansas City International Airport reported delays and schools across the metro area canceled classes.
