While our trucks head out daily for service, some residents and commercial accounts are inaccessible for various reasons, heavy snow laden trees block the roadway, objects or vehicles are parked too close to containers, etc. causing intermittent service. We will catch up!

Chickens love pumpkins, full of vitamins and minerals, and can be parasite prevention. You can use https://t.co/nDfq1E42a8, a third-party app, to find nearby chickens to donate your used Jack-o-lantern instead of tossing in the landfill. #lessinourlandfill

Happy Alaska Day! On October 18, 1867, the Alaskan territories were formally transferred and acquired from Russia to the United States of America for $7.2 million dollars.

Tomorrow is the last day to reserve a curbside compost cart for 2023. The last day for compost curbside service is October 31 or hard freeze mornings. Call 907-343-6250 or email [email protected] to reserve yours today. Thank you for pitching in to composting. #moa_sws

[Solid Waste Services @MOA_SWS]

Chill is in the air, and it is time to start winding down the compost program for the year. October 31 is the last day for curbside compost. Compost carts become frozen organic popsicles, making it tough to empty. We will do our best to maintain service through October 31.
