Early Start for Trash & Recycling Collection on Friday, January 12, 2024; Place Carts Out for Collection by 5:30am

The City of Madison Streets Division will be starting trash and recycling collection for residents with a Friday scheduled collection day earlier than usual due to the severe winter storm forecast for our area.

Residents must have their carts out and ready for collection by 5:30am on Friday, January 12, 2024 to ensure your carts are picked up. 

Collection crews will not return for carts set out late.  

If you have a Friday scheduled pickup, you are encouraged to place the scheduled carts out for pickup sometime tonight (Thursday, January 11, 2024) rather than waiting until the morning so you do not miss your scheduled collection.

As a reminder, do not place your carts out into the road for collection. Carts block snowplows from doing their work. Use your driveway apron or a cleared area of your terrace. 

Update to be Provided

If road or weather conditions force crews to pivot away from providing collection services before it is completed on Friday, an update as a news release will be provided regarding next steps.
