New Orleans Trash Pickups Soar | New Orleans News

from New Orleans News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

New Orleans sanitation is soaring—missed pickups plummeted from over 11,000 in 2023 to under 2,000 this year, thanks to tech-savvy upgrades and renewed workforce focus after Hurricane Ida. Contractors now deploy GPS, route software, and 360-degree cameras to boost efficiency, with drivers like Sidney Torres using footage to master tricky collection spots. The city’s fee hike? It’s not funding new pickups—it’s trimming existing subsidies. Companies like Waste Pro are stepping up too, partnering with officials to meet higher standards and keep the streets cleaner than ever.
