Public Announcement: Important Waste Management Route Change

Green Waste Management Garbage Truck

Waste Management (WM) announced a minor reorganization of residential routes that will take effect on September 15, 2025. This will affect 865 residential customers in Kirkland. The reorganization is designed to improve overall route efficiency and ensure timely and reliable service.

To ensure a smooth transition and prevent extended gaps in service:

  • An extra collection will be provided on Saturday, September 13, 2025, for customers who would otherwise experience a delay of more than five days in their waste collection.
  • Regular collection will resume the following week on each customer’s new scheduled day.

Contact Waste Management

If your service is impacted by these changes, you will have received notification through multiple channels:

  • A letter in the mail
  • A tag on your garbage, recycling, and yard waste carts
  • Phone call notifications (if you have opted in to receive calls)

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to WM:

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this transition.
