Due to the winter storm forecasted to impact the state, including Broken Arrow, there will be changes in the city's curbside trash and recycling service beginning Friday, January 23, 2026.
On Friday, January 23, trash and recycling will be collected together in one route and taken to the landfill. One route, instead of two separate routes, provides crews more time to complete Friday's service before the winter weather hits the area. If you prefer that your recyclables do not go to the landfill, please do not set out your blue recycling cart. Bags of trash placed outside the carts will not be picked up.
On Monday, January 26, trash and recycling services will be suspended out of an abundance of caution for the safety and well-being of our employees. Services will slide to the following day this week.
- Monday service moved to Tuesday.
- Tuesday service moved to Wednesday.
- Wednesday service moved to Thursday.
- Thursday service moved to Friday.
Due to the frigid temperatures and the anticipation of the residential roadways being snow packed during the week of January 26, we will again run only one route to collect both trash and recycling together. Again, if you do not want your recyclables to go to the landfill, please do not set out your blue recycling cart. Bags of trash placed outside the carts will not be picked up.
We understand these changes are not ideal, but we appreciate your understanding as we do our very best to provide you with uninterrupted service and ensure our Solid Waste and Recycling employees can safely perform the duties of their job during this upcoming winter weather storm.
