Seattle, WA

Trash pickup schedule

There is no single day. Seattle 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 Seattle for you, and we do not store it.

About collection in Seattle

Seattle collection schedule

Seattle collects organics 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. Seattle 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. Seattle stops for three days a year, New Year's Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas, and runs the rest of that week a day late with Friday moving to the Saturday. Its own calendar is per address and behind a utilities login, so for a holiday week check that if you can.
