Ramsey Garbage Collection Cancelled Due To Approaching Storm

RAMSEY, NJ — Borough garbage collection has been cancelled Wednesday due to the impending snowstorm.

Storm debris must be moved back off of curbs. Debris left on local roads will prevent streets from being properly plowed, the borough announced. Storm debris can be brought to the borough pool parking lot.

The double-wave storm, the fourth possible nor'easter to hit New Jersey in three weeks, could be a "long-duration event" packing 45 mph winds. The bulk of the storm is expected to come in two waves, especially on Wednesday, and could extend the nor'easter to a 36-hour system.
