Charlotte's Solid Waste Services is experiencing a strain on resources and limited daily citywide services since it took over for the city's recycling contractor after that contractor failed to meet performance expectations.
According to the city, examples include:
One street sweeper cleaning uptown Charlotte streets instead of the nine typically scheduled
One litter crew cleaning city property instead of the usual nine crews
One boom truck clearing heavy debris instead of the usual three
Neighbor Elise Holt, who lives near the city yard where trucks go in and out, says she's noticed.
"It's been different," Holt said.
Routes that were missed as crews filled in for Inland Waste Solution will now get attention.
