Please check local newspapers or other city publications for occasional variances to the holiday collection policy. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (972) 769-4150.
Most households generate extra garbage around the holidays. For this reason, we will collect additional garbage placed in plastic bags outside of your cart. This excess garbage will only be picked up during the week following the holiday.
