Arlington runs on most holidays, and names the short list that changes. The Town's published rule: The Town's 2026-2027 Waste Collection Calendar marks the holidays with no collection; in those weeks collection on and after the holiday is one day late, with Friday's on Saturday. Columbus Day and Veterans Day change nothing, and Independence Day 2026, a Saturday, delays nothing.

The dates below are the federal holidays left this year, with what the Town's published schedule means for each of those weeks.

Arlington publishes its collection routes as a map (Town of Arlington trash and recycling routes): each route area carries a fixed weekday for trash; the lookup reads that area for your address.

WM collects trash and recycling weekly for the Town on the route's day; the Town's routes have not changed since WM took over in July 2025. The map answers any point inside a route area, so the day is for residential curbside service.

We last checked Arlington on October 13, 2026: 8 of 8 addresses returned an exact collection day.
