[StBernard] Garbage Pickup and Mail service

[Westley Annis]

David,

The parish has contracted with another garbage collection company for normal
garbage pick-up.  Until they can get a handle on how many people are living
where, there are no scheduled pick-up days.  The parish has advised to place
your household garbage by the curb, separate from any other debris, and it
will be picked up.

Over the next couple of weeks, as more people return and the company can
better gauge how much garbage is being generated, a schedule will be set and
announced to all.

The Chalmette Post Office is due to open mid-February.  I believe it will be
for counter and box service only.

I am very close to making a decision to rebuild or buy in St. Bernard but
would like to know what the parish is doing about garbage ( not house
cleanup, but the normal garbage that a family make living in a home) pickup
and mail for the short term and long term plans. In a previous post you said
that the garbage cans were being picked up.  How is the garbage from the
homes going to be picked up?  Are they going to pickup at least once a week
or does everyone have to bring the garbage to the dump themselves?  Is there
going to be mail home delivery service, if not are there going to be a LOT
of P. O. Boxes that people can get mail.  Please let me know what the
immediate plans are and also I would like to know what the long term plans
are, let's say by the end of this year.

 

Thanks

David
