Beginning Monday, March 1st, about half of Dayton’s neighborhoods will experience a change in their weekly waste collection schedule.

The brochure is customized by location to reflect accurate neighborhood information. Information is also available by calling the Public Works Call Center at 333-4800 or on the City’s web site at www.cityofdayton.org. (A neighborhood map showing the new collection days is linked here.) Recycling pick-ups will continue to occur every-other week.
