The upcoming Veterans Day holiday on Friday, Nov. 11, will not cause any delays in trash, recycling, and yard waste services provided to the 35 communities served by the Mid Michigan Waste Authority. Residents should prepare and set out materials on their regularly scheduled collection day.

The list of holidays that do impact solid waste pickup are: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. If a holiday falls during the week, trash pickup is delayed one day. Service is not impacted when the holiday falls on a weekend.

Yard waste collection continues through Nov. 30. Residents planning a final leaf raking project or yard spruce-up should put their materials to the curb by their last regularly scheduled service date in November.

Mid Michigan Waste Authority is a government entity providing comprehensive residential solid waste services to approximately 203,000 residents in 35 communities across the greater Saginaw Valley.
