The Saint Lucia Solid Waste Management Authority (SLSWMA) has issued an important public service announcement regarding modifications to regular waste collection services during the upcoming holiday season. Official communications confirm that no garbage collection operations will occur on Thursday, December 25, 2025, in observance of Christmas Day, or on Thursday, January 1, 2026, for New Year’s Day celebrations.
Residents whose regular waste collection days fall on these statutory holidays must consult the officially revised collection schedule published by the SLSWMA. The authority emphasizes that only specifically designated areas referenced in the amended schedule will experience service interruptions during this period.
Comprehensive details, including precisely identified affected communities and their corresponding rescheduled collection dates, have been visually presented through official graphical materials disseminated by the waste management authority. These informational graphics provide clear guidance on alternative collection arrangements implemented to maintain sanitation standards throughout the holiday period.
Municipal officials strongly encourage all residents to diligently follow the updated collection timetable to prevent missed pickups. Citizens are advised to place their waste materials at designated collection points exclusively on their newly assigned days to ensure efficient service delivery and maintain community cleanliness during the festive season.
