Holiday Schedule

In the observance of certain holidays, collection may be altered. This allows the city workers who serve you all year to enjoy these holidays with their families and loved ones. Your cooperation and understanding are appreciated. Please refer to the chart below, the holiday magnet, the Wilson Daily Times, Cable Channel 8, or call 399-2485 to inquire about schedule changes.

The following chart outlines the observed holidays and the resulting variations from regular collection. Typically a Monday holiday shifts Mondays collection to Tuesday and Tuesdays collection to Wednesday. When the observed holiday falls on Thursday or Friday, collection is made one day earlier. When the holiday falls on Wednesday, no route schedules are interrupted, however, there will be no “Trash Day” collections. Please hold materials until the following week.
