Trash pickup has been delayed for several days in Chula Vista and the mayor is demanding action, saying the lack of service is "unfair" to residents.

A strike by Republic Services workers has disrupted waste collection for hundreds of thousands of customers across the Boston area.

Teamsters have alleged that their decision to strike on July 1 was caused by Republic Services’ refusal to agree to pay them the same wages and benefits as other competitor trash companies. Republic Services has denied those claims.
