Garbage overflows containers in the alley behind Zollars Avenue. Previous Next Friday, May 14, 2021 1:00 am Jehl, Hines call out city, trash hauler over delays DEVAN FILCHAK | The Journal Gazette Two Fort Wayne city councilmen are upset about what they say are an increasing number of missed garbage pickups, but the city says it hasn't heard of delays of more than two days recently. Councilman Russ Jehl, R-2nd, said many constituents have contacted him about delays ranging from a couple of days to a couple of weeks. “People are frustrated,” he said. “Usually there's a reason, like construction, but that's not a sufficient excuse to not have a solution for extended periods of time.”
