The temporary residential green waste pick-up schedule will continue through Jan. 29 for customers in Santa Clarita after Waste Management requested an additional week for its modified schedule.

With newly hired drivers and the anticipation of drivers returning from quarantine, Waste Management expects to return to normal levels of service beginning Feb. 1.

Residential green waste pick-up, which normally occurs weekly, will continue to take place every other week through Jan. 29.

The schedule modification means that ONLY residential green waste carts (yard waste) will be serviced once every two weeks on their regular service day.

Trash and recycling pick-up schedules will NOT be affected. Affected residents will be notified the day before service changes using a combination of automated phone calls, emails and text messages according to each customer’s notification preferences.

Customers are currently sorted into “Week A” and “Week B” areas.

Residents are encouraged to visit SantaClaritaEmergency.com to view their service area and schedule based on the location of their residence.

The City of Santa Clarita continues to coordinate with its partner Waste Management to regularly communicate service changes to Santa Clarita residents.

Waste Management customers are encouraged to provide updated contact information in order to receive service notifications and updates by email, phone call or text.
