Lake Charles Holiday Garbage And Trash Pickup Schedule

Christmas Eve and Christmas are this Friday and Saturday and with that, you would think that your trash pickup for your trash day and times would be interrupted due to the holidays.

That will not be the case however according to Katie Harrington with the city of Lake Charles. She has advised us that there will be no changes in Garbage and Trash schedules for the next two weeks during the Christmas and New Year's holidays.  She said that your garbage and trash will be picked up on their regularly scheduled days.

Remember that your trash containers and other items that you want to be picked up need to be placed out by the road before 7:00 am on the day your trash is scheduled to be picked up.

However, the Wood Waste Facility, the Team Green Recycling Truck and the Nelson Road Ball Field Recycling Station will observe the holidays and the schedule of when they will be open has been changed.

• Friday, December 24, 2021: Closed
• Monday, December 27, 2021: Normal Operations Resume
• Friday, December 31, 2021: Closed
• Saturday, January 1, 2022: Closed
• Monday, January 3, 2022: Normal Operations Resume

Harrington went on to say that,

Lake Charles City Hall and all other services of the Department of Public Works will be closed on Friday, December 24, 2021 in observance of the Christmas Holiday and will resume regular working hours on Monday, December 27, 2021. Offices will also be closed on Friday, December 31, 2021 in observance of the New Year’s Holiday and will resume regular working hours on Monday, January 3, 2022.

Have a great holiday.
