Republic Services trash pickups interrupted for time being - and why

Updates as of Tuesday

SNOHOMISH COUNTY — Republic Services workers remained on a work stoppage in cities throughout Snohomish and King counties as of press time Monday because they are in solidarity with a strike by the Teamsters Local in Thurston County at a Lacey landfill, who went on strike Wednesday, July 9. The next negotiations can happen when the two agree to meet again. The union said Monday afternoon they’re still waiting on Republic to open talks.
