Key takeaway MIDLAND, Texas (KOSA) - Trash collection will not happen on Friday, July 3, according to the City of Midland, which has released its holiday schedule ahead of Independence Day weekend.
Why this matters in The Midland
For Midland residents, the adjusted trash collection schedule over the Independence Day weekend means planning ahead to ensure their waste is picked up in a timely manner. This is particularly crucial for households that generate more trash than usual during holiday gatherings. By knowing the city's holiday schedule, residents can avoid the inconvenience of overflowing trash cans and potential attractive nuisances for pests. The city's decision to close on Friday, July 3, and adjust the collection routes for Thursday, will likely impact residents in different parts of the city differently, depending on their regular pickup day. Residents who normally have their trash collected on Fridays will need to pay special attention to the revised schedule to avoid missing their pickup.
