Generally, Tuesday pickups are for Downtown, South and Central Alison Hill, and the southern half of Midtown; Wednesday pickups are for Uptown, Riverside, and the northern half of Midtown; Thursday pickup is for the North Side and Bellevue areas; and Friday pickups are for South Side and everything else.

Beautification Tip
Just a few months ago, I advocated collecting litter and leaves around the home before the snow falls. It has yet to snow substantially in Harrisburg, but we have had much wind in past weeks, so I again advocate this. Think of it is recycling beautification tips.
