How days are assigned
How Paramount assigns collection days.
Athens Services, the City of Paramount's franchised hauler, publishes a residential service days map that divides Paramount into five zones, one for each weekday from Monday to Friday; the lookup reads the zone for your address.
Trash is collected weekly. The day is for residential curbside service: the map answers any point inside a zone, so businesses and apartment complexes on bin service should check with Athens.
We last checked Paramount on October 7, 2026: 5 of 8 addresses returned an exact collection day. The days they returned were Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. That is what our check saw, not a full list of Paramount's pickup days.
