The Omaha Public Works Department announced on Wednesday that some Omaha residents may start to experience delays in the collection of their yardwaste.

The department is asking residents to make sure their carts and properly prepared yardwaste bags are set out by 6 a.m. on their scheduled days of collection.

If materials are not collected, residents should leave the uncollected materials at their set out location.

FCC Environmental Services of Nebraska will be returning to the areas of known misses to pick up the following day or later in the week.

Any missed collections can be reported to the solid waste hotline at 402-444-5238 after 7 p.m. on the scheduled collection days.

Residents can sign up for email notifications of impending holiday or service delays by visiting join.wasteline.org.
