说明
I started to noticed that the garbage pickup for historical downtown area, harsimus cove and hamilton park is getting later and later. In the past few weeks, the garbage trucks show up around 12:30am to 230 am. This is absurd because they are very loud and even the workers are hollering at each other in the middle of the night.
Can we have Public Works or the city who contracts these companies to adjust the hours? They also do several passes on Erie street. Last night I saw the same garbage truck and workers pass down Erie 3X in a time span of 40 minutes. And I confirmed they are picking up trash and not what some may think its recyclable garbage truck vs regular garbage truck because i know they are separate teams/trucks for that with separate routes.

@Jonny86 - I'm 100% with you on this one. As a transplant from East village NYC ( lived there for about 8 years) I'll give it to them for how efficient they are. Although they are loud, they are off your streets within minutes. In JC, the garbage collectors seem to dwell and marinate on each street. There are times i'm behind one in the evening on one way streets ie. 2nd street, 3rd street, 4th street, etc and just wait for ages until they pass.

I am a resident of 10th street, I'm raising the same issue concerning the late and loud trash pick up.
It use to be done around 11pm on Thursdays which to me, was acceptable, but lately it's been between 1am and 3am. It surely wakes the whole neighbourhood for a while. A few nights ago, the truck drove by 3 times within an hour...
Could you please provide the residents with an update of what is being done to avoid this issue?
Thank you

Just want to add my voice to the chorus. I have the misfortune of having my bedroom window face the street. After-hours trash collection is the #1 quality-of-life issue I have with Jersey City right now. It sucks, period. I can second that it's often way later than 10:30 (which is obnoxious to begin with), and wakes me up every time no mater what I do. It's illegal to operate noisy heavy machinery after hours in a residential neighborhood for a damn reason.
Talk to other cities and figure out how they do it, it's that simple. You should not have to make your citizens miserable and physically ill in the name of avoiding the mild inconvenience of a few motorists during normal daylight hours.
I also recall a night that the truck slowly backed up down the whole block in the middle of the night, BEEEEP-BEEEP-BEEEEP-BEEEEP-BEEEP-BEEEEP-BEEEEEP...
