Daily News | Strike could disrupt trash collection in Camden, Haddonfield, and Winslow Township
More than 100 truck drivers and other union workers walked off the job. Waste Management says it intends “to ensure collection services continue" with minimal disruptions.
The statement also said the company intends “to ensure collection services continue with minimal short-term service disruptions or delays.” Union members said Waste Management hired drivers from elsewhere to operate on some routes.
In a statement, Camden Mayor Vic Carstarphen said he and the city sympathize with the unionized workers and want to encourage the company to settle the contract. In Haddonfield, trash was not picked up in the downtown business district as scheduled on Wednesday but will resume Thursday “on a daily basis,” said borough communications officer Joana McDonnell.
