Republic Services COVID-19 Precautions

 

Notice to Schererville Residents

Republic Services has notified the Town that because of the COVID – 19 emergency directives and for the protection Republic employees and the public that drivers are not to get out of their trucks to hand load material. There will be no large item pickups until the COVID – 19 restrictions are lifted. Residents are asked to store any large items in their garage or home until this service resumes. If you have any questions please contact Republic Services @219-662-8600 or Schererville Public Works @219-322-6688.

Residents should place all material for refuse pick up in their provided tote or another refuse container that can be picked up by the auto loader on the truck. Do not place loose material or bags by the curb they will not be picked up. Recycling material should be placed in the recycling tote for normal recycling pickup. Please note: do not place trash in your recycling tote as it contaminates the recycling materials and results in the whole truck load of recycled material being dumped in the land fill.

We would like to thank all residents for their understanding and patience during these difficult times and hope you and your families are keeping safe and following the restrictions we all must abide by. Take care and call us if you have questions or concerns.
