Chula Vista, CA trash pickup by address.

Trash / garbage: Thursday.

Thursday is what one Chula Vista address returned on October 26, 2026.

Put your carts in the street with the wheels against the curb, the arrow on the lid pointing toward the street and the lid closed, leaving at least a foot and a half between the trash, recycling and yard waste carts so the automated collection equipment can lift them.

Carts must be at the curb by 7 a.m., collection happens any time between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m., and empty carts have to be back off the curb by 8 p.m.

Trash left outside the cart is charged as an extra collection, so contact Republic Services before your service day for a larger cart or discounted special bags if your trash will not fit.

If your service day falls on or after New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day or Christmas Day, your collection may be delayed by one day; for every other holiday service runs on schedule.
