When is Refuse Collection Delayed?
When any of the following holidays occur on a weekday, collection for the remaining days of the week will be delayed one day.
Collection is not delayed when the holiday falls on a weekend and snow emergencies do not affect the collection schedule.
In the unlikely event that trash pickup is delayed for other reasons, the city will issue a public bulletin through various channels, including the Department of Public Services homepage.
