Trash Pick-Up Delayed, City Offices Closed

In observance of the Independence Day holiday, trash and recycling collection will be delayed one day and City of Kansas City, Mo., offices will be closed Monday, July 4. The 3-1-1 Action Center will also be closed for the holiday. Residents may still call the 3-1-1 Action Center at 311 or 816-513-1313 and use its Interactive Voice Response system for assistance with City services during this time by following the phone prompts.

Residents who usually have Monday trash collection will receive this service Tuesday, July 5. Residents who usually have Friday trash collection will receive this service Saturday, July 9.

The period after the holiday, July 5-9, is a “no tag” period for trash collection in the City. During this time, residents may set out more than two bags of trash without tags. This is done to accommodate the extra trash that is usually accumulated at this time.
