9:03 AM: After delays and cancellations throughout the week, here’s where Seattle Public Utilities says things stand as of today, and looking toward next week:
Contractors for SPU Resume Collection for All Customers for Friday, February 7, 2025
(Friday, February 7) — As a reminder, due to winter weather, there is a shift for which all customers are serviced today.
Thursday customers should have carts out today. And regular Friday customers will set carts out for collection by 7 a.m. on Saturday. Transfer Stations are open today.
If your materials are not picked up by the end of the following day, please put them out on your next regularly scheduled pickup day. Customers missed this week (Wednesday customers) will be allowed to set out twice their normal amount of garbage, recycling, and yard waste at no additional charge, on their next scheduled collection day.
7:10 PM: After commenters asked about some who were missed on Tuesday, we took the question to SPU’s Brad Wong, who responded:
Thanks, again, for letting us know that some customers in West Seattle did not have their garbage or food waste picked up on Tuesday, February 4.
These individuals can call an SPU customer service representative at 206-684-3000 on Monday, February 10 by 10 a.m. to request a special pick up at the curb of these items on that Monday. There will be no charge for this pickup.
SPU asks customers to report a missed pickup within two business days of their service day. However, we understand that this week’s snow and winter weather disrupted the daily schedules of residents.
