Common questions
What gets picked up on my day?
Trash and compost go out every week. Recycling goes out every other week, on the week shown in your result. All three use the same weekday.
What happens on holidays?
Some city holidays shift pickup by a day. The city's official schedule lookup always shows the current week's plan, including holiday changes.
What if the truck skips my cart?
If the cart was out on time and the city missed it, prepare a missed-pickup report here, then review and send it through Austin 311. Save any confirmation the city issues.
Does this include bulk pickup?
No. Bulk, brush, and hazardous-waste pickup in Austin works by appointment now, not on a fixed week. The city's bulk collection page explains the current booking route.
