Hey Lake Charles, There Is No Trash Pick Up On Good Friday

Next week we will observe the Good Friday and Easter holidays which means most of our local government agencies will do the same giving employees the Friday off. So with everyone shutting down, services that you are used to getting each day will have to be changed.

Such is the case for the city of Lake Charles as they will observe the Good Friday holiday on Friday, March 29th, 2024 and have announced that there will be no garbage or trash pick up that day.

Instead, the city has announced that if your trash gets picked up on Fridays, your day and time will be changed for the holiday week. Katie Harrington with the city of Lake Charles said,

Trash and garbage normally picked up on Friday will be rescheduled for pickup on Saturday, March 30, 2024.

Monday, Tuesday and Thursday routes will remain on their regular schedules.

The Team Green Recycling Truck and Green Station No. 2 (Nelson Ball Field-Alma Ln.) will not be available on Friday, March 29, 2024, but will resume collection on Saturday, March 30, 2024.

The Incinerator will be closed on Friday, March 29, 2024, but will resume regular operating hours on Monday, April 1, 2024.

They also want to remind residents that your trash cans and other items for removal need to be put out before 7:00 am on the day your trash is scheduled to be picked up and you should retrieve your rash cans by 7:00 pm on the day it is picked up.

So note it so you don't miss your trash pick-up day and have a great holiday.
