The city hall of Suzano, Brazil, announced a garbage collection schedule for Thursday and Friday, aiming to restore service that had been interrupted since February 5. A new company, Troupe, was hired for emergency collection to tackle the significant backlog of waste in the area. The municipal administration reported that collection efforts commenced on Tuesday evening and are focusing on high-need regions while ensuring all areas are serviced to eliminate litter buildup.

Despite the reassurances from the municipality, residents in the central area have expressed frustration due to the visible accumulation of trash on streets, particularly highlighting ongoing issues on Wednesday, a day after the resumed collection started. The city's officials have vowed that while prioritizing certain neighborhoods, they will also address waste in other parts to achieve a complete resolution to the accumulation issues that have arisen over weeks.

The local government is optimistic about returning garbage collection to its regular schedule soon after successfully managing the current crisis. The planned work demonstrates a strategic response to community needs and reflects the municipal commitment to improving public sanitation and addressing residents' concerns after delays in service provision. Satisfaction among the community will heavily rely on the execution of this plan and the effectiveness of the new contract with Troupe.
