Shawn Wilson, host of Waynesville’s weekly update, told residents that trash pickup routes will shift one day earlier next week in observance of Juneteenth.
Wilson said Thursday collection routes will run on Wednesday, June 17, and Friday routes will run on Thursday, June 18. He asked residents to share the schedule change with neighbors to avoid missed pickups.
Why it matters: The one-day shift affects residents on Thursday and Friday routes and requires household planning to ensure trash is at the curb on the revised day. Wilson framed the change as an observance of Juneteenth.
