Some Chapel Hill properties are not on city collection at all — apartments, businesses and streets served by a private hauler. Where that is the case we say so, rather than show a day that is not yours.

These days are read from Town of Chapel Hill Public Works — Solid Waste Division and were last checked on September 17, 2026.

Chapel Hill publishes its collection routes as a map (Town of Chapel Hill Public Works — Solid Waste Division (SolidWaste_ServiceParcels_Public)): every property sits inside a route area, and each area carries a fixed weekday for trash; the lookup reads that area for your address and turns the city's route codes into plain weekdays.
