Melbourne, FL Trash & Recycling: Holiday Pickup Schedule (2026)

Sec. and states that if the normal collection day falls on a Holiday, the franchisee shifts service to the next scheduled collection day, unless the city and franchisee agree to an earlier make-up date. The agreement's Sec. " Under normal weeks the franchisee collects roll-cart solid waste twice weekly, program recyclables once weekly under Sec. 2, and customer-placed yard trash once weekly under Sec. 3, all per the Collection Schedule in Exhibit B. Sec. 1 recognizes that Holiday weeks generate more waste than normal and requires the franchisee to collect all bags left outside the designated container during Holiday weeks, rather than issuing a non-collection notice as it would on an ordinary week.

Commercial accounts run on a parallel schedule: Sec. window Monday through Sunday, and Sec. 2 says the franchisee is not required to collect on Holidays at all, with service likewise shifting to the next scheduled day unless the Contract Manager, defined as the City Manager or a designee, agrees to an earlier make-up date. The franchise took effect January 1, 2022, per the Commencement Date definition in Sec. 2, and the City Council adopted it by ordinance under Sec. 20 of the agreement's general terms.
