The City of Wilson will be closed Thursday and Friday, Nov. 27-28, for Thanksgiving. Here's how it will affect city services:

Environmental services: Monday and Tuesday routes will be on schedule. People who normally have garbage and recycling service on Thursday will instead be served Tuesday afternoon. Friday routes will be done on Wednesday. There will be no special pickups that Wednesday.

Customer service: Anyone needing to pay a bill can do so online at www.WilsonNC.org; use the automated system at 399-2200; or use the kiosk in the first drive-thru lane at the customer service center, 208 Nash St. NW. Payments through the kiosk apply to City of Wilson utility and Greenlight customer accounts instantly.

Wilson RIDE will operate Thursday and Friday, although the driver pool might be reduced. Use the Via app or call 595-5357 to schedule rides.

Emergency services and utilities will be staffed throughout the holiday.

We hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving weekend!
