City of Ishpeming issued the following announcement on Dec 16.
NOTICE to City Residents of Ishpeming
Our Service Provider for trash collection (North Country Disposal) are currently challenged by the weather events we are experiencing this morning. They are out providing collection services as best they can but want you to be aware of the effect the weather is having and how it might affect you.
Cans are blown over, trees and power lines are down around the County, recycle is scattered throughout the community. North Country is doing their best to continue to collect materials throughout the day. Should your trash / recycle not be collected today, it is likely the weather has impacted your section of the route. North Country will get to every street / location possible but if for some reason your materials are not collected today, they will need to collect it next Thursday.
Additionally, the City Public Works Department will be watching and working to clear any trees or debris that might be blocking routes. If you see electrical lines down, please stay clear and report this to the Power Company and a courtesy call to the City Public Works Department. We will attempt to support the power company and emergency services with road closures and detours where possible.
We thank you for your patience and request your assistance in picking up any materials which may have blown around once the winds settle down.
