Killeen bulk trash collection service planned

The City of Killeen's trash collections will run unaltered during the week of the Christmas.

The City of Killeen Offices are closed on Tuesday, Dec. 24 and Wednesday, Dec. 25.

The city will be offering bulk collection pick up Thursday, Dec. 26 - Tuesday, Dec. 31. The City will provide additional bulk pick up of Christmas-related waste, free of charge during those dates. Items include packages from gifts and up to four additional bags of trash for the week following Christmas Day.

Residents are asked to place garbage in plastic bags no larger than 33 gallons, or boxes no larger than eight cubic feet wide at the curbside at least four feet away from the roll-out container by 7a.m. on your special collection day. This collection does not include bulky items like furniture, tires, construction waste or appliances. A fee will be assessed for those items.
