Trash Pickup On One-Day Delay For Parts Of City Of Charleston; Garbage Pickup Remains On Schedule
Charleston, S.C. — Due to unusually large volumes of debris created from last week’s wind and rain storms, trash pickup will be delayed one day for downtown, inner West Ashley and James Island residents for the remainder of the week. Outer West Ashley, Johns Island and Daniel Island will remain on a normal trash pickup schedule.
Crews will work into the weekend in order to complete this week’s trash pickup.
Trash includes:
– Leaves, twigs, weeds and grass clippings in brown paper bags designed for the purpose of leaf and clippings disposal,
– Tree limbs and stumps in 4-foot lengths and 4-inch diameter,
– Miscellaneous materials (personal construction materials, wood or metal scrap).
Garbage pickup (collected in green bins) will not be impacted and continue to be picked up on schedule.
“Based on what we’ve seen so far, we’re projecting a 65 percent increase in the amount of trash put at the curb this month – about 700 tons more than usual,” Superintendent of Environmental Services Matt Alltop said. “We appreciate our citizens patience as we get fully caught up and back on schedule.”

Don’t Miss the Parkshore III Block Party! |
Save the Date! After a two year pandemic hiatus, our Neighborhood Potluck Block Party is planned for Sunday April 24th, from 4-6 pm. It will be held at a new site this year, the cul de sac at the end of Leichester Road. It is a great time to renew friendships and meet our new neighbors. Hot dogs, condiments, paper plates / cups / utensils, and non-alcoholic beverages (etc) will be provided, but please consider bringing a dessert or covered dish to share. All Parkshore III residents are welcome! Rain Date: If the weather is bad, we plan on holding the block party on May 1st from 4-6pm. Many thanks to our Parkshore III neighbors who help keep our little community looking great by supporting the voluntary landscaping fund. Without your support, we wouldn’t have the neighborhood islands trimmed, planted, and mulched. Pine straw will be put down in the islands around our neighborhood in the coming weeks. We are also very grateful to all of our families who have contributed in the past and hope you will continue to contribute to the 2022 fund if you haven’t already done so. The suggested donation is $100, but any amount is very much appreciated! Donations can be made to Parkshore III HOA and delivered to our Treasurer, Pam Luhn, at 10 Charing Cross Road. Apologies and Thanks to Willie and Paula Horne who were accidentally left off of the 2021 & 2022 donation recognition lists! We hope to see everyone there!! https://mailchi.mp/d43ee461d1c0/parkshore-3-block-party |
