Please note, that scheduled bulky collection appointments for white goods, appliances, and scrap tires occur on a different pickup schedule than regular curbside bulky trash collection.

As we feast, give gifts, decorate and travel during holiday season, we also consume lots of resources and generate lots of waste. The amount of household garbage in the United States can increase by 25 percent between Thanksgiving and New Year's Day, from 4 million tons to 5 million tons.
Christmas. Christmas is one of the most wasteful holidays of the year. According to a survey conducted by U.S. News & World Report, Americans spend an average of $1,000 on gifts alone during the holiday season. That doesn't even account for decorations and other holiday costs!
The amount of wrapping paper used increases over the holidays, so it's no surprise that wrapping paper, gift wrap, and shopping bag waste make up a large portion of the waste generated over the holidays.
