Columbus unveils subscription plan for yard waste pickup
By Rober VitaleColumbus plans to restore yard-waste collection, but residents will have to pay for it directly. The Department of Public Service said this morning that it plans to introduce a subscription service through Rumpke of Ohio Inc., the private company that picked up yard waste until the city ended its contract during a round of January budget cuts. The reintroduced service will cost $49.50 for a six-month subscription. That breaks down to $1.90 a week.
