Yorktown to Appoint CRP Carting as New Garbage Hauler
September 5, 2023—The Town Board will meet tonight to appoint CRP Carting as Yorktown’s new garbage and recycling hauler.
The Cortlandt Manor-based company was already on the job this past weekend collecting refuse left uncollected by the sudden financial collapse of Yorktown’s previous hauler. As of Tuesday, garbage collection was underway in the parts of Yorktown.
“I am working closely with CRP Carting and our Refuse and Recycling Department to ensure that we restore the routine our residents expect,” said Supervisor Tom Diana. “CRP Carting is a local company with 35 years of experience and a fleet of over 60 trucks. They already serve thousands of Westchester residences, so I’m sure that we will receive the garbage-removal service that our residents expect.”
Because of the Labor Day holiday, there was no collection on Monday. Residents who have Monday collection days will have their garbage collected today and residents who have Tuesday collection will have their garbage collected on Wednesday. Residents with Thursday collection will have their service on Friday and residents with Friday collection will be serviced on Saturday.
Last week, that previous hauler, Competitive Carting Corporation, had most of its garbage trucks repossessed, leaving garbage uncollected in some sections of the Town. At the time of its demise, Competitive Carting owed fines for sporadic garbage collection and Town officials were considering new carting companies.
