Naperville, IL – Residents with Friday trash service in Naperville are being asked to prepare for earlier-than-normal curbside pickup Friday as winter weather moves into the area. The City announced that routes handled by Groot Industries will begin one hour earlier than usual on Friday, Nov. 29, with customers urged to place trash and recycling bins at the curb by 5 a.m.
According to the City of Naperville, the schedule changes are designed to give crews more time to safely complete pickups ahead of forecasted winter weather expected to impact the region. The shift mainly affects residents whose collection day was already moved to Saturday this week because of the Thanksgiving holiday.
To free up staffing resources for trash and recycling operations, the City said yard waste collection is canceled for Saturday, Nov. 29. Officials noted that barring additional weather disruptions or unexpected operational issues, the regular yard waste schedule is expected to resume on Monday.
The City encouraged residents to monitor updates as conditions develop, as crews may need to make additional adjustments in response to snowfall or deteriorating travel conditions. The early start is intended to minimize service delays and reduce the amount of time waste workers spend on the road during hazardous weather.
Residents can track ongoing changes and receive additional notices through the City’s winter operations page at naperville.il.us/winterupdates. City officials thanked the community for its patience as crews work to maintain essential services during the start of the winter weather season.
