The one-day collection change
The Town of Rocky Mount says solid-waste collection scheduled for Tuesday, November 3, will be collected Wednesday, November 4, because of the Election Day holiday. The town says the regularly scheduled November 4 collection will not change.
That means the notice creates an added Wednesday workload rather than moving the regular Wednesday route to another day. This brief does not infer an earlier set-out time, a different container rule or a change to recycling, bulk pickup or another service.
Keep the rule local and current
The notice applies to the Town of Rocky Mount's named solid-waste schedule. It does not establish Franklin County, another town or a private hauler's route.
Residents should check the current town notice before set-out in case weather or operations change the plan. A missed or account-specific collection question belongs with the town's solid-waste contact route.
