Unincorporated Palm Beach County residents receive regular collection service on all holidays, with the exception of Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. If your service falls on one of these holidays, your items will be collected on the next scheduled service day. There is no make-up collection day. 

However, under the new collection service contract in unincorporated Palm Beach County using standardized garbage carts, garbage will be collected outside of the cart from Dec. 26 - Jan. 1. Residents still should place all debris normally collected on these days curbside by 6 a.m.

Municipal Residents should contact their municipality for holiday collection information. As a service to municipal residents, we have compiled a list of municipal contacts.
