Spokane Waste Collection Delayed for Memorial Day

Spokane’s waste management services will be delayed for the week of Memorial Day 2025, with Friday's garbage, recycling, and yard waste pickups moved to Saturday. Residents must have their carts out for collection by 6 AM on their scheduled days to ensure timely service. This change is implemented to accommodate the holiday, reflecting the city’s commitment to maintaining service during peak times. The city has provided additional resources for residents to access information about closures and service changes on its website. This announcement comes as part of broader city efforts to communicate effectively with the public regarding municipal services.

Memorial Day often sees increased demand for waste collection, and the city aims to manage this efficiently. Residents are encouraged to plan accordingly to avoid any service interruptions. Keeping the community informed about changes is essential for maintaining public satisfaction with city services.
