Trash collection operates on Veterans Day; Greenwaste site to close on Friday and Sunday

Residential trash and curbside recyclables will be collected in all areas of the city of Tulsa on Friday, November 11, which is Veterans Day. Services other than refuse pickup – cart repairs, cart sets, bulky waste or dead animal service – will resume after the holiday.

The City’s green waste/wood chip site, however, will be closed on Friday, November 11, and on Sunday, November 13. The green waste/wood chip site is located at 10401 E. 56th St. North. Its usual operating hours are 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily, except for City holidays.

Tulsa residents may drop off yard waste at the site free of charge. They should bring proof of residence such as a driver’s license or utility bill. Commercial customers and residents outside of Tulsa will need to set up accounts to be billed for this drop-off service.

Anyone, however, may take as much green waste material as desired free of charge. A front-end loader operator is available to load the green waste into pickup trucks and trailers.

A firewood cutting area also is available at the green waste site. Those who cut their wood at the site must bring their own tools.
