Christmas Day trash day now Saturday, not Thursday, in Chattanooga

Chattanoogans who normally have their trash and recylables picked up on Thursday will have to wait until Saturday this week, the city says.

The news release from Chattanooga city government said there are no changes in garbage or recycling pickup for Christmas Eve, the day after Christmas or New Year’s Day.

Residents may call 311 to schedule collection of Christmas trees or use any of the recycling centers or refuse collection centers for drop-off locations.
