Raleigh, NC

Trash pickup schedule

There is no single day. Raleigh 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.

Just the street address. We add Raleigh for you, and we do not store it.

About collection in Raleigh

Raleigh collection schedule

Raleigh collects trash every week.

Holiday schedule changes

We move only the collection falling on the holiday itself, and leave the rest of the week alone. Raleigh observes 3 collection-affecting holidays, which is not the same list as the federal calendar. Checked against the city's own published schedule on September 7, 2026. Raleigh moves a collection that falls on a holiday on by one day. We watched that happen for Thanksgiving on the city's own schedule; Christmas and New Year's Day both fall on a Friday this year, past the end of what that schedule publishes, so for those two weeks check the city's calendar.
