Durham, NC –  Due to the recent winter weather event, Durham County Department of General Services’ Solid Waste Division had to reschedule the safety upgrades planned for the Bahama and Redwood Convenience Sites. As a reminder, each site will temporarily close for one and half days to allow for the installation of safety rails alongside the open top roll off containers. The upgrades will now take place on the following days:

•             Tuesday, January 24, 2017, Bahama Site will be closed and reopen on Wednesday, January 25, 2017 at 1 p.m.

•             Wednesday, January 25, 2017, Redwood Site will be closed and reopen on Thursday, January 26, 2017 at 1 p.m.

Convenience Site customers are strongly encouraged to note these dates and make any adjustments to their disposal schedule so as not to be inconvenienced. In some cases, visiting another convenience site while one site is closed may be the best alternative.

For more information about this release or solid waste and recycling services offered to residents of Durham County, contact the Solid Waste Division at (919) 560-0433.
