Republic Services, the company that collects Yorba Linda's trash, has told the city that a pause in collection may be unavoidable in the coming days or weeks because of the strike by Orange County landfill workers. The city posted the warning on Friday, November 13.
No pause has been announced, and the notice does not change the current pickup schedule.
What the city has said
- Republic Services says the strike has significantly affected its ability to unload trash at county landfills over the past few weeks.
- The city and Republic are working together and will post updates if service is interrupted.
- Landfill status is being posted at OCLandfills.com/Updates.
What has not been announced
The city's notice does not say which days or neighborhoods would be affected, whether recycling and green waste would be treated differently from trash, or what residents should do with full carts if a pickup is missed. We will update this page when the city or Republic says more.
Thanksgiving week is already different
Separately from the strike, there is no collection on Thanksgiving Day, and pickups for the rest of that week run one day late. See the Thanksgiving week schedule.
Who to call
The city's main line is (714) 961-7100.
