Holiday Trash and Recyclables Collection Schedule Announced for Thanksgiving Day
 
(Washington, DC) In observance of Thanksgiving Day, the Department of Public Works (DPW) offices will be closed on Thursday, November 24. There will be no residential trash collection, recycling service, graffiti removal, or sanitation enforcement on that day. Additionally, there will be no booting, towing, or DPW parking enforcement, including rush hour, meter, and residential zone parking restrictions.
 
All services, including parking enforcement and rush hour restrictions will resume on Friday, November 25.
 
Citywide trash and recyclables collection will "slide" one day. Households that normally receive city service on Thursday should set out trash and recyclables for collection on Friday. Friday's trash and recyclables will be picked up on Saturday.
