Residential garbage and recycling is picked up on alternate weeks

Garbage and recycling are collected Tuesday through Friday; Organics are collected on Mondays. We collect Monday through Friday all year long - even on holidays. If your collection day falls on a holiday, we may come earlier than normal, so be sure to have your cart out by 6:00 a.m. If you believe your cart was missed, we ask that you wait until after 2:00 p.m. to call, as sometimes routes change and your pick-up may be later than normal.

2010 Calendar:

The 2010 printer-friendly calendar is available online. Full calendars were mailed to homes in December.

Reading the Calendar:

To read the calendar, just match the date to the color coding.

• Recycling week is blue
• Organics every other Monday: The Monday that we empty your organics cart is determined by your pick-up day.
