Mayor Zohran Mamdani took a major step on Friday toward moving New York City’s trash from piles of black garbage bags into lidded containers — announcing his administration will roll out thousands more large curbside bins to swaths of the five boroughs by next year.
The city will convert over 6,500 parking spaces into spots for the containers, dubbed “Empire Bins” by former Mayor Eric Adams’ administration, accross at least one Community District in each borough by the end of 2027. Mamdani said the Empire Bins will be expanded citywide by 2031.
