Another windy day means the Mesa County Landfill is closed for the second time this week.

The landfill closed Monday and is closed again today. Trash pick-up will also be delayed for some residents and businesses until Friday. Grand Junction CRI Recycling drop-off center is also closed until Friday.

“We’ll pick up as much trash as possible today until all the trucks are filled,” Rob Laurin, Solid Waste Supervisor, said in a press release.  “If your trash was to be collected today and wasn’t, it will be collected tomorrow along with Friday’s regular route.”
