One-day trash delay week of Labor Day

Published on August 31, 2026

Lakewood City Hall will be closed Monday, Sept. 7 in observance of Labor Day.

Lakewood’s trash contractor, EDCO, is also closed on Labor Day, so there will be no trash pickup that day. There will be a one-day delay all week. 

With the one-day delay in trash pickup, street sweeping on the same day as trash pickup becomes very challenging with the potential for a low-quality sweep. 

For this reason, the City of Lakewood is canceling street sweeping for the week of Labor Day. Street sweepers will provide extra attention the week of Sept. 14-18 if needed on particular blocks.

Service changes for Sept. 7-11

• No trash pickup; service delayed one day all week. 
• Monday's trash pickup will occur on Tuesday, Tuesday's on Wednesday, etc.
• No street sweeping all week due to the trash delay. Sweeping resumes on Sept. 14.
• No DASH transit service available on Labor Day.

Parking enforcement

Even when street sweeping does not occur, parking enforcement will continue for non-street-sweeping related violations, such as parking in red zones or blocking sidewalks.
