City workers will begin clearing the streets along their daily garbage routes, the Department of Streets and Sanitation said in a statement. Crews will pay special attention to 311 requests.

“We ask residents to please be neighborly and pick up any personal items they may currently have on the street,” said Streets and Sanitation Commissioner Cole Stallard.

Over 11 inches on snow fell during a winter storm that swept across the city last week.

Residents can find their trash collection route at 311.chicago.gov.
