New York trash pickup policy now require businesses to put their trash out after 8pm.
It’s been a month since New York City changed its trash pickup points to mitigate the city’s rat problem, but some businesses feel they’re taking on extra chores to address a problem they didn’t create.
"All businesses have two options: to set their trash out in a bin an hour before close, or to put bags on the curb after 8pm, once peak pedestrian hours have ended," Goodman explained. "The restaurant sheds are the cause of all of this rat infiltration not the balloon saloon. We don’t sell food, we don’t have food, we’re not a rat attracting business," Hershkowitz told FOX5.
