The business office will be closed on Monday, but the kiosk at the drive-through will be open for 24/7 access for customers to pay their bills. Customers may also use their two drop boxes if their payment is not cash, located:
- In front of the Water Business Office, 511 W. Locust St.
- A drive-up box in the Brookshire's parking lot on the corner of S. Broadway Ave. and Rice Road
Residential garbage and curbside recycling pick-up will not be picked up on Monday. To accommodate this, the collection schedule will be delayed by a day. This means that routes that are typically collected on Mondays will occur on Tuesday, May 31, and those that are typically collected on Tuesdays will occur on Wednesday, June 1. Thursday, June 2, and Friday, June 3, will have regular collection schedules.
Any yard waste, including brush; tree limbs; and bags of leaves; are not allowed to be picked up during the week of the holiday. This is because more households will be picked up during collection days.
To ensure that any animals or weather do not scatter trash, the City asks that residents do not set our their garbage carts or recycling bins before 6 p.m. the night before their scheduled pickup collection day. Additionally, according to Sec. 16-4 city ordinance, any garbage carts and recycling bins must be removed by 7 a.m. the day after a resident's scheduled collection day.
For any questions regarding payments for the Tyler Water Utilities, customers may visit their website or call their office at (903) 531-1230.
