Holiday Schedule
General Rule
Waste Management typically observes major holidays by delaying service by one day for the remainder of that week. However, WM actively communicates specific holiday schedule changes directly to customers and via their online portal.
Yard Waste Exception
Because bulk/yard waste is collected on a Monday-based zone system, a holiday falling on a Monday will likely shift that zone's collection to the following day. Always verify via the city's bulk flyer.
Residents should check the WM app or the Hallandale Beach Sanitation Department website during holiday weeks for the most accurate, real-time schedule adjustments.
Observed Holidays
Seasonal Information
Hurricane Season
June - NovemberDuring a tropical storm or hurricane watch, immediately stop all major yard pruning. Do not place bulk items or yard debris on the swale if high winds are expected, as they become severe safety hazards.
Fifth Week of the Month
Varies (e.g., January, March)Because the bulk schedule is based on a four-week zoned rotation, any month that contains a fifth Monday (such as January or March) will have a completely dormant week where no bulk collection occurs anywhere in the city.
Spring Cleaning
March - MayWhen tackling major landscaping or home cleanouts, remember the strict 6-cubic-yard limit for free bulk collection. If your pile is larger, you must be prepared to pay a fee or spread the disposal out over consecutive months.
Local Tips & Community Info
Turning Your Recyclables into Cash in Hallandale Beach!
Thinking about getting a few bucks back for those cans and bottles? While Hallandale Beach doesn't have a specific local buyback center right in town, Broward County has options! Many people find success taking their aluminum cans and plastic bottles to recycling centers in nearby cities like Fort Lauderdale or Pompano Beach. Sometimes, larger scrap metal yards can also take certain types of recyclables, though it's always a good idea to call ahead to see what they accept and their current rates. Remember Florida has that nickel deposit on most beverage containers, so keep an eye out for that when you're sorting!

Got items that are still perfectly good but you just don't need anymore? Instead of tossing them, consider donating! For furniture, housewares, and building materials, the Habitat for Humanity ReStore in Pompano Beach is a fantastic spot to check out.

Also, keep an eye out for local thrift stores or charitable organizations in Hallandale Beach or nearby Hollywood that accept clothing, books, and other household goods.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if a month has five Mondays in Hallandale Beach?
The city's bulk trash schedule is strictly based on a four-week rotation (Zones 1-4). If a month has five weeks (five Mondays), there is absolutely no bulk or yard waste collection scheduled during that fifth week.
Can I put my bulk trash out on a vacant lot next to my house?
No. The Hallandale Beach Sanitation Department explicitly states that vacant lots are not included in the monthly bulk waste pick-up routes. You must place your bulk debris on the swale directly in front of your own property.
Is there a limit to how much bulk trash I can put out for free?
Yes. Residents with four or fewer units are allowed a maximum of 6 cubic yards of bulk and yard waste combined per month for free. If your pile exceeds 6 cubic yards, the city will charge you a fee for the extra removal.
Where can I safely dispose of old paint and car batteries?
Hazardous materials like paint, chemicals, and automotive batteries are strictly banned from curbside bulk collection. You must take these items to a Broward County Drop-Off Center, such as the South Drop-Off Center located on W. Hallandale Beach Blvd.
