Sanitation Zones
The Department of Sanitation (DSNY) manages its work within seven sanitation zones, commonly also referred to as "DSNY zones" and pronounced "Dee-Ess-En-Why Zones."
Sanitation Zones are composed of several Sanitation-Districts, which in turn are built from Sanitation-Sections which are based on Community-Districts. Sanitation Zones have descriptive names like "Brooklyn South" with that zone represented as zone "BKS."
Sanitation Zones should not be confused with the proposed Commercial-Waste-Zones.

These boundaries occasionally change, often in the fall in preparation for high-profile snow removal season. As of winter 2018 most of the export options for this dataset split the records into two separate files. One file contains single outer ring polygons. The second file contains records with multiple outer rings, commonly called "multipolygons." This same weird split of the data also appears confusingly under the "download a specific layer's data" section.
When contacted about this issue the NYC Open Data Team and/or the Department of Sanitation recommended using the Arcgis REST services directly from the Department of Sanitation. However the links to this REST service on NYC Open Data may not be working. If the page reports "SSL required" try changing the url to "https:".
Working as of May 2019 but may not be intended for public consumption.
