Escobedo Adds 24 Waste-Collection Units to Strengthen Service

City officials say the Red Ambiental–backed expansion will curb illegal dumping.

Overview

  • Mayor Andrés Mijes unveiled the new fleet on August 31 as the latest step in Escobedo’s sanitation push.
  • Officials report current coverage of 100% of the municipality with pickups three times per week, saying the added units will boost reliability and reach.
  • The initiative is framed within the “Escobedo se pone guapo” program and aligned with the 4T Norteña agenda associated with President Claudia Sheinbaum’s priorities.
  • The administration presents the expansion as a public health and environmental measure to reduce clandestine dumps and improve the city’s image.
  • Reporting relies on municipal statements, with no independent performance data or cost and contract details provided.
