Effective January 1, the City’s bulk collection schedule will
transition to a two-week process. As the
city has grown over the past several years, the volume of bulk and brush has
increased to the point that the collection contractor is often unable to
complete the entire city in one week.
This has necessitated the schedule change, and while there will be an
adjustment process for residents and staff, the changes will result in improved
service overall.
There will be two zones for bulk collection. Zone 1 consists of the area of the City east
of Highway 78 and south of Sachse Road.
Zone 2 consists of the areas west of Highway 78, as well as the areas
east of Highway 78 that are also north of Sachse Road—this zone will include
all areas of Woodbridge.
Zone 1 will be collected during the week of each month that
includes the first Monday of the month.
In January 2018, this will be the week of New Year’s Day, with all
collections moved back one day due to the holiday. Have your bulk at the curb at 7am on Monday
for pickup during the week. Please note
your adjusted schedule does not coincide
with your regular trash day. While the
bulk and brush pickup service begins on Mondays, the amount of material
throughout each zone may delay pickup until later in the week. For example,
zone 1 pickup starts on the first Monday of the month, but because of high
volume, residents in the zone may not see pickup trucks until later in the
week. The same is true for zone 2. Zone 2 will be collected during the week of
each month that includes the second Monday of the month. Have your bulk at the curb at 7am on Monday
for pickup during the week. Your adjusted
schedule does not coincide with your
regular trash day. All other procedures
related to bulk will remain the same as in the past.
Please watch your mail for more information coming directly
from Republic Services which will include the entire schedule for garbage,
recycling, and bulk for 2018. Your
December bill will not include an additional bulk calendar. Thank you for your cooperation during this
transition—our goal is to provide improved collection service to all our
citizens.
