Trash Pickup On Normal Schedule in Dearborn For Veterans Day Week

Trash collection will be on a routine schedule Nov. 11-15 despite the federal holiday of Veterans Day on Monday.

That means residents should put out their trash and yard waste as normal Nov. 11-Nov. 15, and households designated as Recycling Week A should follow their usual schedule.

In addition, city crews will be picking up loose leaves in the street, per the established process.  Crews will be collecting leaves raked into the street on trash days in areas that do not recycle Nov. 11-15.   Rake your leaves into the street as close to your trash day as possible if you are not recycling Nov. 11-15.

Leaves raked too early into the street can cause safety hazards. Residents are reminded that leaves in bags or proper containers will be picked up every week on your trash day.

City Hall, the 19th District Court, libraries and the senior center are closed on Veterans Day.  The Ford Community & Performing Arts Center is open, as is the Dearborn Ice Skating Center.

The city’s Veterans Day Ceremony will be at City Hall inside the Council Chambers at 11 a.m. on Monday.  The public is invited.
