West Shore residents who didnB次元官网网址檛 have their recycling picked up earlier this week due to the snow will have to wait another two weeks.

According to the Capital Regional District (CRD), a number of trucks attempted to provide collection service on hills or along narrow side streets early in the day, but slipped off the road or became stuck.
Since collection trucks are used around the region on a daily basis, the CRD said they cannot be sent back to impacted areas.
