The WGH Board of Directors recently learned that the Department of Sanitation will temporarily suspend curbside composting beginning on Monday, May 4. The City informed us that they’ve had to divert resources in order to maintain emergency services and core municipal services. The temporary suspension is expected to last until July 2021.
During this time, West Gate House will continue to collect organic/compost waste in the brown composting bins. We will continue to do this for building sanitary/odor/rodent mitigation purposes. Any organic/compost waste from the brown bins will then be collected as trash by the City.
If you have any questions about West Gate House trash and recycling practices, you may contact the Board at wghpresident@gmail.com or Howard Landman at 212-483-0700 ext. 309 or hlandman@sirenmgt.com
