Spokane Solid Waste Collection Remains on Schedule for Martin Luther King Jr. Day

Spokane residents will experience a delay in garbage, curbside recycling, and yard waste collection beginning Thursday, as service will be postponed by one day in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday. Friday's pickup will occur on Saturday, prompting residents to set their carts out by 6 AM on their designated collection days. The city recognizes the significance of maintaining waste disposal services during holiday times, when refuse generation often surges. This announcement also coincides with other potential city closures, which are detailed on the Spokane city website. The delay in waste collection is part of Spokane's broader efforts to ensure efficient services and promote community awareness.

Citizens are encouraged to stay informed and prepare accordingly to mitigate any disruptions in their waste management routines. The city’s commitment to transparency and accountability in public services is evident in its proactive communication.
