After a short stint on the picket lines, Teamsters Local 174 union members have agreed to go back to work. According to our news partners, the Seattle Times, the garbage haulers feared that if the strike continued, Waste Management might begin to lock out union members, which happened a few years ago in California. The strike officially started on Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. Seattle Public Utilities says that customers whose garbage was not collected this week because of the strike can set out up to twice their garbage, yard waste and recycling on their next regular collection day at no additional cost.
