St. Charles Refuse/Recycling Pickup Shifts for Holidays

The city of St. Charles would like to remind residents that there will be no refuse or recycling pickup Tuesday, Dec. 25, 2012, and Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013, due to the Christmas and New Year’s holidays.

Scheduled collection for all residents will be delayed by one day, beginning the Tuesday of each week. Also please remember to have containers out at the curb by 6 a.m. on collection day.

Also, Christmas trees will be picked up without a refuse sticker during the weeks of Jan. 7 and Jan. 14, 2013. Pick up will be on both sides of the river on regularly scheduled refuse collection days. After the week of Jan. 14, 2013, a refuse sticker will be required for Christmas tree collection.

Please do not place Christmas trees in disposal bags and remove all decorations, including tinsel, before placing at the curb.
