Iowa collection guides
Iowa trash pickup by city.
Check an Iowa street address, or open one of the 6 city guides below to see the verified collection day and the source behind it.
What is verified
Iowa collection, measured.
Every day on these Iowa guides is read from the city or hauler that publishes it, last checked on August 17, 2026.
Collection across these cities runs on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, which is why no single statewide day is assumed here.
Collection information for these cities is read from 6 local sources: Cedar Rapids Solid Waste & Recycling, City of Cedar Falls, City of Council Bluffs Solid Waste Management, City of Davenport Public Works and 2 more.
Local responsibility
Iowa does not have one statewide pickup day.
Schedules are set locally, so two Iowa addresses can differ in provider, weekday, and holiday rules.
Good to knowTrashDayNow is independent; the local provider remains the authority.
