Sick of walking out the door each morning only to see your trash can where you left it days ago? Get ready to part ways with the 40s that have grown so comfortable in your recycling bin: Trash pick up is set to resume next week, said Alex Dews, the policy and program director for the Mayor’s Office of Sustainability. Dews noted that compared to the size of the storm, the slightly more than week-long wait for trash and recycling pick up to restart is minimal.

Set out the garbage bags that have been smelling up your hallway on trash day next week, but seeing how temperamental Mother Nature can be, no one’s making any promises.
