Texas Disposal Systems Holiday Schedule 2022 FAQ

In the U.S., people throw away 25% more trash between Thanksgiving and New Year’s than any other time of year. At TDS, we help our local Texas communities remove the additional waste created during this time and also help divert as much as we can from landfills. 

For more information on how you can divert waste this holiday season, check out our tips on the blog or the Waste Wizard, which can help you determine which items can be composted or recycled rather than thrown in the trash bin.

We also offer a free Christmas greens and organic decoration recycling program. Learn about our living greenery and Christmas tree recycling program here!

What happens if my pickup schedule falls on a holiday?

If your regular pickup day falls on a TDS holiday, service will typically slide one day.
 
In 2022, Christmas Day falls on a Sunday. TDS does not pick up on Sundays, therefore service slides forward one day to Monday, December 26.
 
New Year’s Day also falls on a Sunday, therefore service will slide forward one day to Monday, January 2. 
 
Please make sure your containers are out and ready for collection. Sign up to receive service reminders at TexasDisposal.com/Waste-Wizard.
