Residents and private haulers should plan around the missed Saturday drop-off period. Normal transfer-station hours are 7 a.m.–2 p.m. on weekdays and 7–10 a.m. on Saturdays; loads must be unloaded before closing.
The announcement concerns the transfer station, not a change to curbside collection. Recycling drop-off sites accept only their listed recyclable materials and are not substitutes for ordinary trash disposal. The city's facilities page explains accepted materials and disposal arrangements.
For operational questions, contact Recycling and Trash Collection at 479-575-8398. The reopening is the city's announced plan; no later amendment was found in the checked municipal news and media-room listings.
