After more than 20 years of business-as-usual, changes are underway to the Town of Herndon’s trash and recycling collection schedule.
Beginning on August 5, recycling collection days will change for all residents, while trash collection days will change for some residents.
The changes are “needed to increase collection efficiency, balance routes, consolidate collection areas, and allow for existing and future development,” according to the town’s website.
No changes to the level of service offered by the town’s curbside collection program are proposed.
All recycling days will change to either Monday or Tuesday. Trash collections days will be on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday.
Residents can visit the town’s website to see their new schedule. All containers must be at the curb by no later than 6 a.m. on the scheduled collection day.
More information about the changes are available online. Residents with questions can contact the town’s Department of Public Works at [email protected].
