How days are assigned
How Virginia Beach assigns collection days.
Virginia Beach publishes its collection routes as a map (City of Virginia Beach Public Works Waste Management): each route area carries a fixed weekday for trash and recycling; the lookup reads that area for your address.
Trash is collected weekly and recycling every other week.
The map covers ground the city does not collect from, so a hit on the map is checked against the city's service boundary before a day is shown.
We last checked Virginia Beach on August 17, 2026: 6 of 6 addresses returned an exact collection day. The days they returned were Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. That is what our check saw, not a full list of Virginia Beach's pickup days.
