Collection that keeps the lot clear before the next seating
Restaurants fill containers on a different clock than offices. Metro schedules frequent front-load and rear-load pickups, including after hours, so service does not land in the middle of a rush.

What hospitality sites run into
- Containers overflowing between weekend services
- Trucks arriving while guests are at the door
- Tight alleys where a front-load truck cannot square up
How Metro runs the account
- 1× to 6× weekly pickup matched to covers, not a generic route
- After-hours collection when the dining room needs a clear dock
- Rear-load for alleys and front-load where the lot allows it
A typical restaurant account starts with the container location, the nights you are busiest, and whether the truck can approach from the street or the alley. Frequency is set from that, then adjusted when volume changes.
Equipment: front-load dumpsters for steady volume and rear-load service for tight access. Recycling can be added on the same visit.
