How Sacramento handles holidays

The city's 2026-2027 service guide says: "Regular collection occurs on holidays." Containers should be out by 6 a.m. on the collection day.

The guide's statement is general and does not break out garbage, recycling and yard waste. The guide lists no Thanksgiving or Christmas 2026 dates, and the city's holiday schedule page covers city offices and could not be read for collection.

Contact and your collection day

Phone: 311 (call center 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.). Find your own collection day: city lookup.
