Trash pickup
North River Farms trash, recycling, and green organics are picked up every Friday by WM (Waste Management), the City of Oceanside’s hauler.
- Holiday weeks: WM observes six holidays: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. When one falls on a weekday, pickup for the rest of that week is one day late, so Friday pickup moves to Saturday. Holidays on a weekend don’t delay pickup.
- Upcoming delayed pickups: calculating…
- Holiday trees: collection starts the weekday after Christmas and runs for three weeks.
- Large items and missed pickups: call WM at (760) 439-2824. Large item pickups are free several times a year; call at least one business day ahead.
