RECYCLING DELAYS: Here's when your bin will be picked up in Houston

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- The city has told Eyewitness News that money and manpower are the key issues.

Collection trucks are broken and the city has not purchased any new ones. Some workers seem to have left for better jobs.

On their website, the city mentions the busy holiday season and higher volumes at the curb as the reason for falling behind on some pickups.

Many Houstonians count on curbside pickup not just for garbage but for recyclable materials.
