Autauga County Announces Adjusted Holiday Trash Collection Schedule

Autauga County issued an update on December 17, 2025 informing residents about modified trash collection operations for the December 2025 holiday period. The notice details adjusted pickup days and provides guidance for households and businesses to follow during the holiday week. County officials also updated the county web calendar and news feed with related operational notices to help residents plan.

The announcement directs residents to the Autauga County website and to contact the county sanitation office for specifics on routes, extra pickup drop off options, and timing. The county web page that hosts the notice and the news feed are the primary sources for route specific instructions and any last minute changes to service. Residents who rely on municipal sanitation services should confirm their normal pickup day and note any alternate collection days that may apply for the holiday week.

Service changes during holidays can affect household routines, local businesses and community cleanliness. Altered pickup schedules often create temporary increases in curbside volume and compressed collection windows, which can create missed pickups if residents do not adjust placement times for bins and bags. Advance notice from the county aims to reduce confusion and enable sanitation crews to plan staffing and route sequencing to maintain service continuity.

For local governance and transparency, posting the schedule on the county web calendar and in the news feed provides an official, accessible channel for operational updates. Residents should rely on those county postings and the sanitation contact points for verified information. Those with special disposal needs or who anticipate excess waste during the holiday are advised to inquire about extra drop off options and timing to avoid accumulation and potential public health issues.

Keeping current with the county updates will help households avoid service disruptions and allow sanitation crews to serve the community efficiently. Visit the Autauga County website at autaugaco.org/Default.asp for the full notice and contact information for the sanitation office.
