UPDATE, 9 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 17: Waste Management says it won't pick up food or yard waste in Redmond on Tuesday, but it will pick up residential garbage and recycling.

ORIGINAL STORY: Waste Management will not be collecting garbage and recycle materials from its residential customers on routes with Monday service in Redmond and other Eastside communities because of icy and snowy roads.

In a news release from Waste Management Northwest headquarters in Kirkland, the company said it would double-up collection next week.

In addition to Redmond, other areas that will not have collection service Monday include unincorporated King County, Kirkland, Bothell, Issaquah, as well as Mill Creek and Mukilteo in Snohomish County.

The company is also delaying commercial collection services to the same areas, said Robin Freedman, Waste Management spokeswoman. Trucks will work commercial routes on Saturday instead.
