If you would like the 2024 recycling calendar, you may download it here or request a copy to be emailed or mailed to you by emailing curbit@charlottenc.gov.

If you receive recycling collection through the city, collection is every other week, and you are either on a green or an orange week. Use My Charlotte Lookup to determine your collection information. 

An asterisk * indicates an observed holiday. All collection services (recycling, garbage, yard waste and bulky waste) will operate on a one-day delay with Friday customers receiving service on Saturday.
