Arlington, TX
Trash pickup schedule
There is no single day. Arlington collection days follow the collection route, not the neighborhood, and two houses on the same street can differ when a route boundary runs between them. Your house number decides it.

About collection in Arlington
Arlington collection schedule
- Arlington collects bulk, recycling and trash every week.
Holiday schedule changes
- When a holiday falls in your collection week, there is no pickup on the holiday and every remaining day that week shifts forward by 1 day. Friday collection moves to Saturday. Arlington observes 4 collection-affecting holidays, which is not the same list as the federal calendar. Checked against the city's own published schedule on September 25, 2026. The page's own intro line says "there are five holidays during the year where your collection day may be impacted," then names and dates exactly four: New Year's Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas. No fifth holiday is named anywhere on the page - recorded as four rather than guessed at a fifth.
