Short answer: It depends on your location. Many municipalities suspend trash and recycling on Veterans Day (November 11) and resume the next day or later, but schedules vary by city. Check your local public works or sanitation department for the precise holiday schedule. What to do next
- Find your city or county’s official waste service page (often run by the Department of Public Works or Sanitation).
- Look for a holiday schedule or “Veterans Day” notice.
- If your normal pickup falls on Tuesday, it’s common for there to be no collection that day, with possible make-up days later in the week.
If you share your city or ZIP code, I can give you a targeted answer based on the official holiday schedule for your area.
