The Republic Services trash collectors strike in Massachusetts won't be resolved this weekend. The company and the union representing the workers will meet with a federal mediator again next Tuesday, July 15. No progress was made when Republic and Teamsters Local 25 met with the mediator Friday.

One mayor said his city will also take financial action against Republic Services because of the weekslong labor dispute.

Governor Maura Healey weighed in on the weekslong strike thwarting trash pickup in at least 14 Greater Boston communities on Thursday morning, urging Republic Services to reach a deal.

The fight between striking Massachusetts sanitation workers and the waste-management giant that employs them has entered a third week with no apparent signs either side is closer to making a deal. Local officials from impacted communities were joined earlier this week by Secretary of the Commonwealth Bill Galvin and members of the Boston City Council in calling for Republic Services to negotiate an end to the work stoppage which began on July 1.

State leaders urge Republic Services to finalize contract with striking Teamsters as uncollected garbage piles up in Massachusetts communities and other states across the country.

Negotiations between Republic Services and Teamsters broke down late last week. Talks are set to resume Tuesday, but the impacts of the trash strike are growing more pronounced.
