New York City: holiday pickup changes
DSNY announces holiday changes one holiday at a time and publishes no standing rule, so we do not move any dates. In a holiday week, check DSNY’s holiday notice.
In the city’s words: “Holiday service is subject to change. If your collection day falls on a holiday, please check our homepage, social media accounts (Twitter/X, Facebook, or Instagram), our press release section, or 311” (source)
Always check your city’s official notice. Cities sometimes change a holiday schedule at short notice. These dates are computed from the rule above and the holiday calendar; where the city publishes no standing rule we mark the holiday week “may change” and do not move any date.
