Spokane Delays Waste Collection for Independence Day

Spokane will delay garbage, recycling, and food & yard waste services by one day in observance of the Fourth of July holiday, with pickups scheduled for Saturday, July 5, instead of the usual Friday. Residents are reminded to place their carts out at 6 AM to ensure service. The city’s decision to adjust the collection schedule allows workers to participate in Independence Day activities while maintaining essential services. This notification is part of a broader effort to keep the community informed about city operations during holidays. Residents can find more details about city closures and other holiday-related changes on the official city website.

Spokane has consistently prioritized public engagement and transparency in its communications, ensuring that residents are aware of service modifications. This approach enhances community trust and participation in local governance. The city’s proactive measures reflect a commitment to both service delivery and community involvement.
