PHILADELPHIA (AP) — As trash and tempers heat up across Philadelphia on Day 8 of a strike by blue-collar city workers Tuesday, some residents and small business owners are hiring pop-up hauling services to clear their blocks of garbage, even as they broadly support the union’s quest for higher pay.

Trash continues to pile up along Philadelphia’s streets as a union strike by sanitation workers and other municipal employees enters its eighth day, following failed negotiations with the city for higher wages.
