[ARCHIVED] 12-20-18 Special Holiday Trash Collections

Christmas Day and New Year's Day collections will be delayed one day.

The City of Killeen is offering free excess waste collection to help residents clean up after the holidays. Excess trash will be picked up curbside on the first regular collection day following Christmas according to the following schedule:

Regular day                        Special collection day
Monday                               December 31
Tuesday                               December 26
Thursday                             December 27
Friday                                   December 28

Excess trash may be placed in plastic bags no larger than 33 gallons or boxes no larger than eight cubic feet. All items must be at curbside by 7 a.m. on the special collection day and must be at least four feet away from the roll-out container.

This collection does not include bulky items like furniture, construction waste or appliances. A fee will be assessed for those items.

Regular Tuesday collection days will be affected by the holidays. Christmas Day and New Year’s Day collections will be moved from Tuesday to Wednesday.

Killeen Transfer Station will be open December 24 and closed December 25. Residents may dispose of up to 300 pounds of excess trash at the facility free one time per month.

Killeen Recycle Center will be closed December 24 and 25.
