How Holidays affect Refuse/Recycling Collection
On holidays observed by the City, City offices are closed and refuse/recycling collection services are, unless otherwise noted, delayed one day for the remainder of the week. There are exceptions. Although City offices are closed, there is regular collection on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Eve Day.
Here is the rule of thumb: If the holiday is BEFORE your collection day, your refuse/recycling collection will be picked up one day late that week. If the holiday is AFTER your collection day, your collection is on a regular schedule.
For example, if the holiday falls on a Wednesday, there is regular collection on Monday and Tuesday. However, Wednesday collection will be on Thursday, and Thursday collection will be on Friday.
